New Zealand Grand Prix practice sessions too close to call between rivals
I was going to write about today’s three practice sessions in the 2019 Castrol Toyota Racing Series.
Practice 1
1) Liam Lawson - 1:02:501
2) Marcus Armstrong - 1:02:737 (+0.236)
Practice 2
2) Marcus Armstrong - 1:03:568
9) Liam Lawson - 1:03:814 (+0.246)
Practice 3
2) Liam Lawson - 1:03:530
3) Marcus Armstrong - 1:03:591 (+0.061)
These two championship rivals are so close that it is actually pointless making any comparisons or gaining anything from this.
They traded an almost identical gap from Practice 1 to Practice 2, and were only six hundredths of a second apart in the last session of the day.
Qualifying 1 tomorrow morning is going to be one to watch. Get ready.
(Lucas Auer and Raoul Hyman still have a mathematical chance at winning but their practice times were a bit more varied so this doesn’t include them.)
Join us for the Castrol Toyota Racing Series Qualifying 1 at 0850 AEDT tomorrow before Race 1 for the Dan Higgins Trophy at 1316 AEDT.
