A sold-out crowd in Cannes witnessed the most heart-stopping Qualifying session in the history of the Red Bull Air Race World Championship on Saturday, as pilot after pilot jumped to the top of the standings. Finally, as the last to fly, Michael Goulian of the USA seized his first-ever pole. Another American, Kirby Chambliss, clocked the day’s fastest single lap in finishing second, with Australia’s Matt Hall in third. Sunday’s first-ever Red Bull Air Race in France will be one for the ages.

About: The Red Bull Air Race World Championship features the world's best pilots in a motorsports competition based on speed, precision and skill. Using the fastest, most agile and lightweight racing planes, Red Bull Air Race pilots navigate a low-level aerial race track made up of air filled pylons, flying at speeds reaching 230mph while withstanding forces of up to 10g. The objective is to complete the course, navigating the 65 feet high specially designed inflatable pylons known as Air Gates in the fastest possible time. Red Bull Air Race pilots must pass between the Air Gates in the correct position taking care not to touch them with their wings. The pilots compete for points at each Red Bull Air Race and the one who accumulates the most at the end of the season is crowned Red Bull Air Race World Champion.
