Auberlen and co-driver Boris Said who leads the GT driver standings will also be looking to extend the team’s race-winning streak to four straight in tomorrow’s race.<BR> <BR> “The track was still a little bit damp (from earlier rains), and it was a little hair-raising in a few spots,” Auberlen said. “I got a little sideways a few times at a high rate of speed. With some quick steering, I was able to get it back, but you had to put it on the limit to get it there. The plan for tomorrow is to run a nice, conservative pace for six hours. I’ll start driving a tank of gas, Boris will take over for gas and tyres, and hopefully, I will get in again. The trick here is to stay out of trouble, keep it going, don’t lose a lap and get it on the podium.”<BR> <BR> Auberlen’s teammate Joey Hand will start second in GT after logging a best qualifying lap of 106.465 mph (1:54.874) in the No. 22 Prototype Technology Group BMW M3, and Anthony Lazzaro claimed the third spot on the GT grid following a best lap of 106.322 mph (1:55.122) in the No. 30 Risi Competizione Ferrari 360GT.<BR> </FONT></TD></TR> </TABLE><BR> </CENTER> <BR><CENTER><font size="1" color="#808080" face="Tahoma">Copyright ©2000-©2023 TotalMotorSport</font></CENTER> </td> </tr> </table> </body>
