Karun Chandhok puts JRM RACING in pole position for  the 6 hours of Shanghai

27 October 2012, Shanghai: JRM Racing will start the Six Hours of Shanghai, the eighth and final round of the 2012 FIA World Endurance Championship, from pole position in class and fourth overall on the grid. This is the team’s first-ever pole in the championship and best qualifying result of the season. Karun Chandhok, the only of the three JRM Racing drivers with previous experience of the Shanghai International Circuit, was out in the #22 and set a fastest time of 1:51.003.

The result came after a slow start to the day for Karun. The rain and a red flag early in the session meant he had to wait before going out on track for the first time this morning. As a result he only completed 10 laps to check out the cold and slippery Shanghai track and prepare for the decisive qualifying session. In the end it made little difference as the Indian secured pole by 0.016 over the #12 Rebellion. Tomorrow's race will be the first time Shanghai hosts an FIA World Endurance Championship round and it will also mark the end of the 2012 championship.
