Audi reservou para si a primeira linha da grelha de partida das 6 Horas de São Paulo, quarta prova do Mundial de Endurance, com o R18 Nº1 de Lotterer/Treluyer/Fassler a bater por muito pouco os seus colegas de equipa, Kristensen/Duval e McNish. O Toyota de Davidson/Buemi e Sarrazin completou naturalmente o top 3. O Lola-Toyota Nº 12 da Rebellion Racing, de Nicolas Prost e Nick Heidfeld foi quarto classificado, e sai na frente do primeiro carro da categoria LMP2, pertencente a John Martin e Mike Conway (G-Drive Racing). Na categoria LM GTE Pro, a pole foi para Richie Stanaway e Pedro Lamy, com o Aston Martin Vantage GTE N°98 a sair na frente do Porsche 911 RSR N°92 de Marc Lieb-Richard Lietz e o segundo Aston Martin Vantage, N°97, de Stefan Mücke e Darren Turner.
