George Russell got pole position at the Spa-Francorchamps circuit for ART GP. Nirei Fukuzumi and Arjun Maini completed the top 3.

Russell set the early pace in qualifying with an advantage of 6 tenths over Aitken. Fukuzumi followed his teammates on 3rd ahead of Boccolacci, Schothorst, Lorandi, Alesi, Hubert, Kari and Maini.

After pitting for new wet tyres and with the track drying up, the times started getting quicker. Maini got P1, but his time was quickly improved by Russell and Fukuzumi. No one would be able to be faster than Russell today and he got a new pole position.
