Vesti defeated Hauger’s provisional pole time in the last three minutes of qualifying.
Hauger was the man to beat in the final stages of the session after taking the lead after the first few runs, but Vestis 1: 50.882 minutes secured him the top spot and the additional four points that came with it.
Notably, Vesti had no purple sectors on its best run.
Victor Martins completed the top three behind Vesti and Hauger at the head of MP Motorsport, ahead of Jack Doohan and MP team-mate Caio Collet.
