Charlie Robertson was the fastest Ginetta driver, roughly half a second behind Conway despite a spin at Becketts that cost the #5 crew running time for repairs.
In LMP2, United Autosports contuined its strong pace with a third consecutive fastest time in practice. This time it was Phil Hanson who was quickest, putting in a 01:41:271 to put the #22 ORECA ahead of Giedo van der Garde in second for Racing Team Nederland.
