PAIR OF F3 TOP 3 STARTS FOR PROTECNICA RACING IN SYDNEY
Protecnica Racing’s Chris Alajajian has secured a pair of top three starting positions for round five of the 2005 Kumho Tyres Australian Formula 3 Championship for the CAMS Gold Star at Sydney’s Eastern Creek International Raceway.
After losing some valuable running time on Friday with a mechanical problem, Protecnica Racing was looking to today’s qualifying sessions as another chance to make strides with the car.
In the first qualifying session, Alajajian recorded a time of 1:24.2037, almost two seconds faster than the time he set in Friday’s practice sessions.
It was four tenths of a second shy of the benchmark set by championship leader Aaron Caratti, but it was enough to claim a front row starting position for the opening race.
