SHANGHAI, April 12: Championship leader Neel Jani continued his sensational form to qualify the Swiss car in pole position for tomorrow’s sprint and feature race at the A1GP Shanghai, China.

Twenty-four-year-old Neel Jani set the fastest lap in the closing moments of the second 15-minute qualifying segment to take the pole position for Sunday morning’s sprint race from Portugal’s Filipe Albuquerque, who set the fastest lap during Q1 and has been on superb form all weekend.

Canada’s Robert Wickens put in an incredible performance to qualify third. India’s Narain Karthikeyan, who was also on fine form, will line up alongside Wickens in fourth while New Zealand’s Jonny Reid qualified in fifth position on the third row, a disappointing result for the title contenders.

USA’s Jonathan Summerton, who finished on the Feature race podium the last time out in Mexico, will start the race from sixth alongside Reid.—Agencies
