Stefan Mücke als Fünfter bester Benziner im Qualifying zum 2. LMS-Lauf in Monza

26.04.2008: Stefan Mücke als Fünfter bester Benziner im Qualifying zum 2. LMS-Lauf in Monza

Das erste Ziel ist erreicht: Sportwagenpilot Stefan Mücke hat am Samstag (26. April) im Qualifying für den 2. Lauf der Le Mans Series (LMS) im italienischen Monza den fünften Startplatz hinter den jeweils zwei Diesel-Werks-Peugeot und -Audi herausgefahren.

Der 26-jährige Berliner, der bereits beim LMS-Auftakt vor drei Wochen in Barcelona Dritter wurde, brachte damit den geschlossenen LMP1-Sportwagen-Prototypen Lola – Aston Martin als schnellstes von einem Benzinmotor angetriebenes Fahrzeug über die Ziellinie.

„Das Auto lief prima. Vom ersten freien Training an bis hin zum Qualifying konnten wir unsere Rundenzeiten verbessern", sagte Stefan Mücke. „Und der Abstand zu den Diesel-Rennern war auch nicht all zu groß. Mal sehen, was am Sonntag in dem Sechs-Stunden-Rennen für uns geht."

Auf dem 5,793 km langen Traditionskurs von Monza wird der Berliner zusammen mit seinem tschechischen Aston-Martin-Werksfahrerkollegen Jan Charouz das 1000-Kilometer-Rennen für das tschechische Team Charouz Racing System in Angriff nehmen.

Die Pole-Position sicherten sich der Franzose Nicolas Minassian und der Spanier Marc Gené im Peugeot 908 Hdi FAP vor ihren Teamkollegen Pedro Lamy/Stéphane Sarrazin (Portugal/Frankreich). Dritte wurden Allan McNish/Rinaldo Capello (Schottland/Italien) im Audi R10 TDI vor ihren Teamkollegen Mike Rockenfeller/Alexandre Premat (Deutschland/Frankreich).

Stefan Mücke bestreitet als Werksfahrer von Aston Martin für das Charouz-Team die LMS-Saison und tritt zusammen mit Jan Charouz und Tomas Enge (beide Tschechien) auch bei den legendären 24 Stunden von Le Mans Mitte Juni an. Dort hatte Stefan Mücke im Vorjahr als bester Rookie auf Platz 5 in der LMP1-Klasse für Furore gesorgt.
