Car 62 Leads the Way as Both Mustangs Qualify Inside the Top 20 at Monza
Academy Motorsport completed two qualifying sessions at Autodromo Nazionale di Monza on Saturday, with both Ford Mustang GT4s setting their grids for Race 1 and Race 2 of Round 2 of the 2026 GT4 European Series.
Car 62 was the stronger of the two in Q1, with Cameron McLeod and Marco Signoretti posting a best lap of 1:54.369 to qualify P8 overall in a 43-car field. Car 61 had a tougher opening session, Nathan Vanspringel and Erik Evans lapping in 1:55.418 to line up P31.
Q2 told a different story for Car 61. Vanspringel and Evans improved to a best lap of 1:55.207 to claim P19 overall, setting Race 2 grid position in the process. Car 62 also stepped forward, McLeod and Signoretti clocking 1:54.493 to qualify P13 — their best lap of the weekend and a solid platform for Sunday’s race.
Both sessions were held in dry conditions with track temperatures approaching 50°C. Results are provisional, subject to final scrutineering.
