Teams and drivers have completed on-track preparations for the first race of the 2013 V8 Supercars Championship in Adelaide, with Tony D’Alberto topping a tight morning warm-up.
Just one second separated the first 23 cars at the end of the 20 minutes of running, which saw D’Alberto set the best time of 1:22.31s after the flag fell.
The Hiflex Holden driver’s effort bested Dean Fiore’s previous benchmark by 0.01s, while Fujitsu Racing duo Scott McLaughlin and Alexandre Premat continued their strong Friday form in third and fourth.
Fabian Coulthard, Will Davison, Alex Davison, Russell Ingall, Jonathon Webb and David Reynolds completed the top 10.
The session ran green for its duration, despite James Moffat twice being reduced to a crawling speed in his Norton Nissan with mechanical problems. The former Dick Johnson Racing driver, who will start 13th this afternoon, failed to complete a flying lap during the 20 minutes.
Todd Kelly was the fastest of the four Nissans in 12th after running a pair of somewhat ragged high 1:22s on his first set of tyres.
The Erebus Mercedes entries meanwhile continued to struggle for pace, with Lee Holdsworth the fastest of the trio in 18th.
Race 1 of the 2013 V8 Supercars Championship will kick-off at 1435 local time.
