The free practice was interrupted by a problem with the installation of evacuation plaques, the newly paved track helped times and the final minutes of the LMP2 session were particularly exciting. The #32 fielded by United Autosports scored its first pole position of the season in 1:28.627.
In LMP3, the pole went to United Autosports' #2 with a time of 1:36.277.
In the LMGTE class, the top spot was taken by Iron Lynx's #60 Ferrari 488 GTE Evo. Ferrari pulled off a hat trick with second position for AF Corse's #88 then the all-female trio of Frey-Gatting-Gostner in the #83.
