h. 6:20 pm: In the KZ the best time of the qualifyings is scored by defending European Champion Jorrit Pex (CRG/TM; 47,873 sec.), followed by Max Verstappen (CRG/TM; 47,988 sec.) and Davide Foré (CRG/TM; 47,999 sec.). Tomorrow the KZ drivers will be contending two qualification heats from 11:20 am to 2:50 pm.

In KZ2, after Riccardo Negro (DR/TM) bested everyone in the timed qualifyings, the following names topped the six heats contended, in this order: Felice Tiene (CRG/Maxter), Marco Zanchetta (Maranello/TM), Marijn Kremers (Birel/TM), Riccardo Negro (DR/TM), Simone Brenna (TB Kart/Modena) and again Marco Zanchetta.

The limit of 108 dB (measured with four microphones placed over the finish-line) was subject of polemics amongst drivers and technicians, since it resulted in a significant number of penalties for non-compliance (in KZ2 18 drivers lost between 3 and 6 places depending on their decibel level). In addition, a mistake in the publication of the standings (resulting from the amount of penalties handed out) caused an interruption of several minutes in the afternoon program, resulting in a considerable delay with the day's schedule.

h. 9:55 am: Good morning from Wackersdorf (south-east Germany)! We are on track for the first round of the CIK-FIA European Championship for the KZ and KZ2 classes. Cloudy skies and rain in the forecast for today's first sessions: free practice until 12:25, then timed quaifying sessions, and the first qualification heats. On schedule for tomorrow, Saturday, the rest of the heat races and for Sunday the prefinals and finals. To find out the name of the new European champion, however, we'll have to wait until Sunday, June 30th, when the 2013 championship will hit the second and final round in Genk, Belgium.
