The other newcomer Edoardo Piscopo shared the wheel of another Bonaldi’s Gallardo with Greek youngster Aristotelis Varvaroussis and set the fifth overall response followed by Gerhard Tweraser (Grasser Racing), reinging AM World Champion Alberto Viberti – who left Composit for Imperiale – and the other rookie Simone Pellegrinelli (DTM Racing).
