Ferrari Sweeps the Front Row in Hypercar

Fuoco was in imperious form, edging teammate Robert Kubica in the #83 Ferrari by 0.347s, while Antonio Giovinazzi completed a sensational 1-2-3 for Ferrari in the #51 car. Giovinazzi, who crashed during Thursday’s FP2, recovered strongly to post a 2:00.201 lap despite a late scare at Les Combes.

The fastest non-Ferrari was the #94 Peugeot TotalEnergies 9X8, with home hero Stoffel Vandoorne delivering a strong fourth-place performance—Peugeot’s most competitive qualifying showing of the season.
