The 2015 F2RWRS Tasman Grand Prix was a F2RWRS race held in Adealide, Australia. The weekend also were the first round of the F3RWRS series.
Pre Qualfying
The first Pre Qualfying for the 2015 Season proved to be an intense once as Wouter Lamberigts lost his first hot lap when he came across Wojciech Cieslar, who was also on a hot lap, costing the Belgian a bucketload of time. Cieslar was then handed a repirmand a few minutes later when he held up Terry Hawkin whilst the Brit was on a hot lap with the Pole on a out-lap. Just before the time was up, a last-gasp effort from Hawkin to haul Jones into pre-qualifying ahead of Gillet by the slim margin of 2 hundreths of a second right after the checkered flag fell.
Qualfying
The first ever free-for-all qualifying session in the F2RWRS proved to be a great success for new commissioner Tom Douglas as the times continually tumbled and the order changed faster than a fruit machine. In the end it was Wouter Lamberigts and Alberto Cara who locked out the front row with the Belgian being the first driver to break the 1:20 barrier all weekend. Gigi Pazzini did a fantastic job in the second RonDen to be on the second row as the Lancias locked out four of the top six spots.
Miko Glotch and Enrico Molinaro were both given probations for holding up Terry Hawkin and Hansuke Shioya respectively, although it didn't make much of a difference to Shioya's day as he was down in a relatively lowly 16th place. But at least he wasn't doing as badly as Carter Simpson in the Young Lions car who blew both his hot laps at turn 9 to be last on the grid and with a lot of work to do on race day.
