Bazilian Rubens Barrichello will start Sunday’s Hungarian Grand Prix on pole position alongside Formula One world champion Michael Schumacher in an all-Ferrari front row.

Barrichello swept around the tight and twisty Hungararing circuit in one minute 13.333 seconds to knock Schumacher off the top spot by a mere 0.059 of a second.

The German, his fifth title won and now seeking to become the first man to win 10 races in a season, had been fastest halfway through the qualifying session. It was Barrichello’s third pole of the season and sixth of his career.

Ralf Schumacher led an all-Williams second row ahead of his Colombian team mate Juan Pablo Montoya while Italians Giancarlo Fisichella, in a Jordan, and Renault’s Jarno Trulli were fifth and sixth respectively.

The Ferrari dominance set the Italian team up ahead of a race expected to bring them their 12th constructors’ title and fourth championship in a row.

Briton Anthony Davidson, driving a Minardi, will make his debut from last place on the grid after successfully qualifying little more than half a second slower than his Australian team mate Mark Webber. The grid will be 20 cars, with Arrows absent.
