 Randy
Pobst: “This morning the track was wet and I had no grip
whatsoever when I ran the Audi on ‘wet’ tires.
After I changed to ‘dry’ tires,
even though the track was still completed wet, I went faster – real
bizarre. Only other problem was when I had literally skated off the
track very early on, Fitzgerald slid in to me which damaged my car’s
offside rear corner but that will be repaired.
The
afternoon’s test was dry but we spent the session experimenting with
set-ups.”
 Michael
Galati: “I stayed on wets in the morning while I ran a soft
set-up in the afternoon so my times are not representative. It looks
like we’re in for a wet race – since Audi has raced its
all-wheel-drive sedans in 2000, that hasn’t happened!”
