Jelley Bounces Back in Qualifying Lottery

Stephen Jelley bounced back after the disappointment of yesterday to claim pole position for Round 6 of the 2007 Lloyds TSB Insurance British F3 International Series on a wet Bucharest track.

On a drying track the last five minutes proved to be frantic as times tumbled, with Atte Mustonen, Sam Bird, Sebastian Hohenthal, Alberto Valerio and Maro Engel  all staking a claim to the top spot but it was Jelley who was fastest when the chequered flag was displayed to end the 30 minute session.

Jelley finished 1.2 seconds ahead of Alberto Valerio, with Atte Mustonen just five hundredths of a second behind the Brazilian, who was running with a new rear wing after clouting the wall hard five minutes into qualifying. Engel was 4th, with Bird and Hohenthal rounding out the top six.

Championship leader Marko Asmer set the early pace but lost out in the final five minutes and could only manage 10th place alongside the Ultimate Motorsport Mygale of Esteban Guerrieri.
