Australia's Mark Webber put his Porsche 919 hybrid on pole position for the World Endurance Championship's 6 Hours of Fuji on Saturday, topping the second Porsche driven by Marc Lieb and Audi's Benoit Treluyer.
The Porsche LMP1 car, piloted by current drivers' championship second-place sitters Webber, Timo Bernhard and Brendon Hartley, is on pole for the third time in 2015 and is looking for its third-consecutive race victory after wins in Germany and the United States.
"Porsche have done an incredible job in the last 12 months, pace-wise there has been a big step," said Webber at the post-qualifying news conference.
