Sebastian Vettel continued Red Bull’s pole position domination by securing the teams seventh of the season, out of seven races.
His best lap came in the final session, just over one hundredth shy of dipping into the 1:12’s. Fernando Alonso will start second ahead of the second Ferrari of Felipe Massa.
Mark Webber will start ahead of Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg, whom separates the two McLaren cars.
The session saw no major upsets, though Pedro de la Rosa came in contact with the wall on two occasions but suffered no damage.
Jerome d’Ambrosio won’t take part in the race as he failed to qualify within the 107% regulation by almost half a second.
