Abu Dhabi - Yas Marina 03.11.2013
After 1 week of driving and testing, pushing to the limits it is F.Galevski in the end that secured the pole. He in great style, after setting that hotlap of 1.38.750, left the qualifying session before it's end late on saturday, while several others drivers still tried to get close to him, among them was D.Avramovski also who previosly said that he can go below -300 to his own personal best lap, but that happened long time into the session.
It was Gorgi Ristovski who late in the session went even faster than Dusko Avramovski and was on 2nd starting position for the race but that lasted couple of minutes, then, D.Avramovski pulled off astonishing lap, which he himself more or less destroyed in the end with heavy unrequired braking before the straight line, and he past the finish line for just +0.004 to F.Galevski!
F.Galevski joins Gorgi Ristovski as first who pulled it off Teo Stojanovski and Dusko Avramovski who all have won 2 poles in row, altogether 3rd for Galevski.
Also what was "closest battle for pole" in Monaco between brothers Gorgi and Darko Ristovski, where Darko alike Dusko yesterday also lost the pole with mistake in the last two turns, i.e. we would have witnessed perfect laps, finished then by +0.006 on 2nd while yesterday we had something bit closer, +0.004 for 2nd.
After the qualifications D.Avramovski said: "It's a perfect lap, it requires a lot of nerves and concentration to pull of another like that. I went even better and i blow it off because i was not that much concentrated, i would have been able to go beyond but i just didn't had the nerves, After all Galevski deserved to win the pole, so far now this is his strongest performance"
However Darko Ristovski after the sessions caught on leaving, commented in disbelief "They drove it great, especially Galevski, Avramovski joined later, i cannot see where they found that 1 second" D.Ristovski said.
F.Galevski found out hour later after the results went official and he was told by "Janosh aka Charlie" that it was Avramovski's bad breaking in the last turn that he got the pole, i.e. it would have been much different story.
"I know, i spoke with Avramovski and he told me, i won't lie to you and say that i am sad because he didn't won the pole (laughs) but it's really hard to pull it off perfectly, i had either -0.1 here and there but it was almost impossible. 1.38.5 would have been the perfect really perfect lap. I am glad with the pole" Galevski said
