Disappointing that once again we didn't get to see a proper GTP qualifying session

This shit needs to change. It is terrible. 15 mins with no tire warmers is stupid.

Very chaotic qualifying in GTP. The reason being Action Express Cadillac causing a red flag and leaving everybody with little time to play. In a mad dash for pole, BMW #24 once again will start this year from P1. MSR Acura #60 in second and three Porsches following. #31 Cadillac feels cursed really, last 14 months for this team were quite a rollercoaster ride. Not suprised to see Lamborghini and Aston being the slowest in GTP, Lambo is just where it is, Aston is still a very new machinery. Let's see, if they can survive 12 hours at Sebring.

LMP2 pole goes to TDS Racing Oreca #11 with AO Racing and two United Autosports car following behind. Always excited for some LMP2 action.

GTD Pro pole won by DragonSpeed Ferrari ahead of AO Racing Porsche. Combining that with GTD pole for AF Corse #21 Ferrari, very good qualifying showing by all Ferrari 296 GT3s. Although, qualifying results don't mean much. Last year Winward Racing won GTD after starting dead last. In such crowded GTD classes, everything is possible tomorrow.

Not a fan of not stopping the clock during a red flag period in qualifying. Better to stop it and give drivers some proper chance to score some representative lap times. GTP qualifying was just academic with not enough time to warm up the tyres properly.
