Det var igen Peugeot, der var i spidsen af ILMC-feltet i fredagens første frie træning på kinesiske Zhuhai.
På banen, der ligger tæt på Hongkong, var Sebastien Bourdais og Simon Pagenaud hurtigste duo foran Tom Kristensen og Allan McNish
Igen var det et stærkt reduceret felt, der var ude på asfalten i træningen. Blot 19 biler blev registreret for en tid.
Team Felbemayr-Proton-Porschen var femtehurtigst generelt – og dermed hurtigst i GT2-klassen.
