While other brands got lighter, Hyundais remained with the maximum ballast.

Despite the dificult circumstances Borković finished q1 in 8th place and q2 in 5th.

“A lot of things changed on the car. I can't say I am satisfied with the qualifying but I scored a point. Target Competition Team did a great job, and my teammates as well but the new BOP made the balance of the car be really bad and I could really feel lower power. I will start 5th on Sunday and 6th on Monday. The most important thing for me is too keep my lead in the championship”, Borković said after the qualifying.
