Two free practice sessions were scheduled for Friday, the first day of the Ultimate Cup Series.
14 LMP3’s were in contention: 8 Ligier JS P3’s and 6 Norma M30’s.
The two sessions had the same the order, at least for the first two places.
The Ligier # 26 Wimmer Werk Motorsport narrowly was fastest, with three hundredths of a second, in front of the Norma # 16 of Red River Sport by Nielsen, Vincent Capillaire, who’s best lap was 1.33.611, signing the best time in front of Johnny Mowlem. Two other Norma followed: the M30 # 9 of Graff Racing driven by Eric Trouillet (1.34.737) and the M30 of DB Autosport # 21 Antoine Robert (1.34.886).

In the second session, the Ligier was maintained its position, but with a gap of more than half a second, Lukas Dunner achieving the best time of the day in 1.33.096 against 1.33.563 by Mowlem. Next came Danil Pronenko and the Ligier JS P3 # 4 by Speed Factory Racing (1.33.834) and Antoine Robert with the Norma M30 by DB Autosport # 21 (1.33.954).
