Kumpen-Longin-Radermecker (Mosler) en pole des Menzo 24 Hours of Zolder

28.08.2008: Kumpen-Longin-Radermecker (Mosler) en pole des Menzo 24 Hours of Zolder

Il aura fallu attendre les dernières minutes de la quatrième et ultime séance qualificative pour connaître le nom du poleman de la trentième édition des Menzo 24 Hours of Zolder dont le départ sera donné samedi à 16h00.

Mercredi soir, Vincent Radermecker avait déjà affirmé les intentions du team MI Gravity International en signant, à la lueur des phares, une première référence de 1.34.374. Mais Maxime Soulet tout d’abord surprit tout le monde en s’emparant de la pole provisoire à 23h20. Puis ce jeudi, ce fut au tour de Jeffrey Van Hooydonk de descendre le chrono avec un 1.33.707.

 De quoi placer notre ex-pilote de F3000 au faîte de la hiérarchie à l’issue de la 3e séance. Mais du côté de Gravity, on préparait la riposte. « On a encore gardé notre joker, » souriait un Anthony Kumpen très sûr de son coup. « On va aller rechercher notre bien. »

Et quelques minutes plus tard, après une neutralisation au drapeau rouge pour dégager la deuxième Dodge A+ en position dangereuse, le quadruple vainqueur de l’épreuve frappait un grand coup : 1.33.017. La messe était dite. « Je suis content car notre Mosler est désormais plus facile à piloter, » expliquait celui dont la voiture (une Corvette Z06) s’était aussi élancée en pole l’an dernier grâce à Kurt Mollekens. « Elle sousvire moins. Nous avons un tout bon équipage. Ne rouler qu’à trois constitue un avantage. J’espère remporter un cinquième succès dimanche pour sauver ma saison. »

Derrière, « Jeff » échouait finalement à sept dixièmes devant la Porsche GPR des tenants du titre Soulet-Franchi-Leinders-Kelders et la Dodge de Jan Heylen, Patrick Schreurs et les frères Wauters séparés par deux petits millièmes.

On retrouvait ensuite les Ferrari de Vincent Vosse (Pedro Lamy débarque samedi) et Fred Bouvy (épaulé notamment par Vanina Ickx et Alexandra Van de Velde), les Porsche NGT et Prospeed, à compter aussi parmi les favorites, encadrant aux 7e et 9e rangs la Mosler G&A de Guino Kenis. Enfin, cinquième marque présente en Division 1, la Lamborghini Gallardo de Ceuster-Haane et les frères Van der Zwaan complétait le Top 10.

Aux commandes de la Porsche 997 Cup qu’il avait failli imposer l’an dernier au général, François Verbist usait de son joker (il est passé trois dixièmes sous le temps-pivot fixé aux essais en 1.36) pour s’adjuger néanmoins le meilleur chrono en Division 3 devant la 996 RS de Pulinx-Menten-Palttala-Fumal.

La meilleure performance en Division 2 revenait à la Porsche 996 GT3 Cup de Van Oost – Van Delm – Van Elslander – Van Rossem, juste devant la plus rapide des trois Ginetta G50 inscrites en D4 (« guest »), celle de Vanbellingen-Vandermaesen-Redant-De Crem.

Enfin notons que l’originale et vrombissante Ford Mustang GT4 fermait la marche au 27e rang, deuxième en GT4 juste derrière l’Aston Martin Vantage N24 de Cracco-Van Audenhove-Jennen-Peeters créditées d’un chrono de 1.45.432

Hour 21: Phoenix rises from the flames

As the Total 24 Hours of Spa entered its final four hours the arithmetic continued to move inexorably in favour of the class leaders.
