Despite a Balance of Performance tweak handed down prior to qualifying, which left the Audi R8 LMS Evo II GT3 25kg heavier than it had been in Saturday's race, DTM rookie Feller surged to the top in the latter stages of the session after electing to stay in the pits early on.
Prior to the final runs, Lucas Auer (Winward Racing Mercedes) headed Feller's team-mate Kelvin van der Linde on a 1m40.185s, with both opting to set their times in the middle of the 20-minute session with a clear track.
