Glickenhaus led the way in opening practice for the Monza WEC round ahead of Alpine, while newcomer Peugeot ended up a strong third ahead of the two Toyotas. Full FP1 report and results:
Romain Dumas led the way in the solo Glickenhaus 007 LMH with a 1m37.984s lap, which put him six tenths up on the solo Alpine A480-Gibson and eight tenths ahead of the fastest of the two Peugeot 9X8s in third.
Alpine driver Andre Negrao headed the times with a 1m38.602s midway through the session before Dumas leapfrogged that time and Paul di Resta’s 1m38.802s in the #93 Peugeot to propel the Glickenhaus to the head of the times. Sebastien Buemi posted a 1m39.120s in the #8 car, a tenth up on the 1m39.287s to which Kamui Kobayashi improved right at the end of the session in #7.
The form of the Glickenhaus follows a Balance of Performance break for the American entrant ahead of the Monza 6 Hours: the car has been given another 18bhp over the previous power level of the car. The second Peugeot ended up in 20th position behind the entire LMP2 field, Loic Duval setting a 1m41.522s on the 11th of only 12 laps completed by the car.
The quicker of the two Peugeots also encountered problems during the session: it stopped at the Ascari Chicane and was returned to its pit on the back of a truck on the completion of the session.
