Please refer to these track maps when looking up Turn numbers/names ** Special thanks to AMG @ GTPlanet.net for the hard work put in to generate them!!! **

I qualified P1 with a 1'46.958, 4.140" quicker than P2.

I crash-turn the first two tunnels to keep a healthy gap to the Toyota 7, and knowing that it would pit after its 10th lap, I chose to come in after Lap 7. I switch to R3s, and exit the pits in P4. The AMG and R390 pit on the next lap, and after the Toyota 7 comes in, I take the lead as I begin the final lap. From there, it's an easy drive to the line.

I ended the practice session with 3725 miles, and ended the race with just under 3760 miles on the odometer. The MPZ finished with 698 SettingsHP.

Here's a video of my run:
