Having completed the qualifying session at the Mugello Circuit, starting on pole in tomorrow's race will be Giacomo Pollini, who with his best lap of 1'46.661 takes the first point at stake at the Tuscan weekend. The fast lap arrives a few minutes from the end of the session, with the driver from Brescia who thus took away the advantage from Matteo Roccadelli (+0.227), up to that point leader of the session, who will still start from the front row, thus having a good chance to contain the supremacy of Giacomo Pollini.

Second row for Filippo Lazzaroni, so far very fast in all sessions, who closes third at +0.539, continuing to be one of the main competitor of the race weekend at the Scarperia e San Piero circuit. At his side will start Matteo Pollini (+1.051). The first Champion of the series on Wolf Racing Cars is ready to give battle in tomorrow's race (start at 14.20), in which all eyes will be on him right from the start, in which he will immediately try to gain positions, as he has already done in the past. Third row for Davide Uboldi (+1.160), who has already been victorious on the Tuscan circuit, as well as having vastly demonstrated that he is perfectly capable of getting ahead even when starting behind. From his side will start Sweden's Linus Hellberg (+1.572). P7 for Jolan Raccamier (+2.246), a young French driver returning to the Championship after missing the Vallelunga round. He is immediately determined to recover and get back into the fight, even in the Under 25 class, which this year is extremely hard-fought due to the presence in CISP of so many valid young drivers. Among these is Alessio Salvaggio (+2.942), who will start alongside the Frenchman in race 1. Completing the top 10 is Giancarmine Spadaro (+2.976), who will start ninth, then Colombian driver Santiago Mejia (+3.065).

Giacomo Pollini: "this weekend started quite badly because we were not at all right with the set-up. Free practices was quite painful. We completely overturned the car befor entering qualifying. It was a risk, but apparently we made the right move and we're on pole." Then on tomorrow's race: "I'll try to give everything to bring it home, it's important to start doing some thinking about the Championship as well. I'm in the lead, I have a good margin...it would be stupid to throw away races, we'll try to give our best."
