Koiranen GP’s Jack Aitken will start the second race of the Formula Renault 2.0 Alps opener from pole position.
Having topped the second qualifying session at Imola, Aitken has now taken pole in all three major Formula Renault 2.0 categories – NEC, Eurocup and now Alps.
The Brit first took the lead off race one winner Anthoine Hubert with three minutes to go, just as a red flag stoppage interrupted the session.
A restart did take place and Aitken improved with his only remaining flyer, bettering his time just enough to keep Hubert at bay, with the Frenchman moving to within just 0.05s at the last moment.
An impressive performance from Fortec’s Martin Kodric yielded his career-best qualifying result in third place as he cleared Koiranen duo Stefan Riener and Jake Hughes.
Simon Gachet will start the race in sixth ahead of Matevos Isaakyan, who led the session early on.
Vasily Romanov, Ben Barnicoat and Philip Hamprecht completed the top ten.
