Rain washed out qualifying for the Mobil 1 presents Labour Day Weekend Grand Prix of Mosport on Saturday, putting James Weaver and Dyson Racing’s No. 16 Lola on pole position for Sunday’s eighth round of the American Le Mans Series.
The LMP1 championship-leading Audi R10 TDI of Allan McNish and Dindo Capello will start on the outside front row. Staying in front of the Audi will go a long way toward keeping Weaver and Leitzinger in the championship chase heading into Petit Le Mans at the end of the month. A lot of that, though, depends on how much – if any – rain falls Sunday.
The first of the LMP2 cars, Penske Racing’s No. 7 Porsche RS Spyder, will start third overall. Romain Dumas’ best recorded time was 1:07.221, good enough for the class pole by 0.161 seconds over the sister car of Sascha Maassen and Timo Bernhard.
