Klaus Graf has taken the pole position for Mosport's American Le Mans Series race. He recovered grandly from a first practice crash with a quickest lap of 1:08.679 in his Lola-Aston Martin codriven by Lucas Luhr.

Chris Dyson was 2nd in the prototype class 0.365 seconds behind the polesitter. He codrives his Porsche RS Spyder with Romain Dumas. Actually, the top-3 was separated by only 0.399 seconds with Guy Smith and Steven Kane in 3rd.

GT pole went to BMW M3 GT driver Dirk Müller and codriver Joey Hand. Dirk Werner and codriver Bill Auberlen will start in second in the sister car that qualified only 0.059 seconds behind. Jörg Bergmeister took third in class.

The record heat wave experienced this week has had its impact on the Mosport track where the air temperature was still more than 32 degrees Celcius on Saturday.
