The Yorkshireman found a bundle of time in the middle part of the lap to flex a huge advantage over di Grassi, which gave him enough of a buffer when he went wide at the final corner.
Di Grassi had earlier denied Mitch Evans a finals appearance, with the Brazilian holding a 0.4s advantage by the close of the second sector, but a slightly more wayward final part of the lap gave Evans a glimmer of hope. The Jaguar driver just fell short, losing out by just under 0.2s. Sergio Sette Camara made another duels appearance, but his Dragon Penske machinery came to a stop in the stadium section and thus granted Rowland easy passage through to the semi-finals.Motorsport Images
As the first flurry of qualifying laps came in, drizzle began to emerge overhead - but Mortara stayed out after his initial run and prevailed through the early precipitation and improved up to first. Jean-Eric Vergne was dumped out of the top four of Group B, as the confusion over Evans' pitstop time briefly looked to give the Frenchman a reprieve.
