Red Bull Ferrari driver Felipe Fraga will start the second DTM race at Norisring from pole position after beating the Lamborghini of Mirko Bortolotti in second qualifying.
Fraga, who retired from race one following a heavy hit from Esteban Muth at a restart, becomes the eighth different polesitter from as many races as he outpaced two-time DTM champion Marco Wittmann's Walkenhorst BMW by 0.174s in the faster of the two 20-minute qualifying sessions.
Bortolotti, who lost his qualifying times from race one for not presenting himself to be weighed after the session, will therefore start second ahead of Wittmann. With Guven dropping back, race one winner Thomas Preining is therefore promoted to fourth ahead of defending champion Maximilian Gotz and three-time champion Rene Rast as six different manufacturers fill as many positions.
Gotz moved up to third ahead of Olsen, who will start eighth despite the Porsche carrying an additional 10 kilos following a Balance of Performance tweak.
