New qualifying method for this Eurocup mid-season did not give emotion for the session until last 10 minutes out of 30. Ptak (Cram Motorsport) was leading the session at that moment, when all drivers were leaving the pit-lane.

During the last minutes, Lando Norris (Josef Kaufmann Racing) climbed to first position and stopped at boxes to change front wing, which was damaging his laps.
