Rheinard snatches Q3 from Volker at the line

Marc Rheinard has taken the third round of qualifying at ETS Spain, the Infinity driver snatching the TQ from Ronald Volker as he launched his car across the loop on the final lap. With Volker, going into what unknown to him was the final lap at the top of the timing screen, Rheinard took the gamble that it was the final lap and punched his car to get it over the loop with the 2/10th gained from taking the risk, enough to get the job done.  Taking a more normal approach to the final corner, unfortunately for Volker he would lose out on the TQ by 0.136 of a second.  Behind, Christopher Krapp would compete the Top 3, the Yokomo driver clearly delighted with his run.  Making it a good overall team result for Yokomo, Nicolas Lee would post the fourth fastest time.  Having dominated proceedings in Q1 and 2, Bruno Coelho would get sixth, despite a spin and being on used tyres, leaving David Perez as the best Xray for the round with a P5.
