This is how Verstappen’s GT3 race Qualifying in Portugal works: what he must do to take pole

Max Verstappen will take part in qualifying for the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup in Portimão on Friday, October 16. The four-time F1 world champion will fight for pole position with Mercedes-AMG Team Verstappen Racing, but unlike in Formula 1, his lap time alone will not be enough. Qualifying for the three-hour race in Portimão begins on Friday, October 16 at 18:55 Dutch time and runs until 20:05. This weekend, Verstappen shares his team's Mercedes-AMG GT3 with Chris Lulham and Ben Barnicoat, and all three drivers must take part in qualifying.
