SEAT Sport driver Jordi Gené emerged again – like in yesterday’s testing – as the fastest in a calm free practice session.

He completed a lap of the Brno circuit in 2:12.119 ahead of Jörg Müller for BMW Team Germany.

Another SEAT man, Yvan Muller, posted the third best time. Andy Priaulx was fourth and the final driver to post a time sub 1:13.00.

Robert Huff's time of 2:13.265 placed him 8th overall on the time sheet; two spots above his Chevrolet team-mate Alain Menu.

Despite having a new engine in his car, Nicola Larini suffered again technical problems as yesterday and he was only on the track for a matter of minutes.

From the Alfa Romeo team it was Augusto Farfus who posted the best time of 2:13.629 which placed him just outside the top 10 in 11th.

GR Asia man Tom Coronel was the quickest of the independent drivers in 9th position overall after completing a lap in 2:13.327.

Vincent Radermecker of Maurer Motorsport was the fastest of the four new drivers, posting the 22nd time in his Chevrolet Lacetti.
