ALLAN SIMONSEN has scored an emphatic pole position following today’s 20-minute qualifying session for round four of the 2006 Speed Energy Drink Australian GT Championship at Phillip Island.
The Dane needed only three laps to bank a benchmark time of 1m35.5093s to score pole position, just a tenth ahead of current Championship leader Greg Crick and a mere two tenths up on Porsche ace Bryce Washington, leaving three different manufacturers inside an intensely competitive top three.
Simonsen’s pole was the first for Ferrari this season, the Italian manufacturer becoming the third different marque to take top spot in qualifying this year following earlier successes for Porsche and Dodge.
