With Fernando Alonso in third and team-mate Felipe Massa seventh on the grid, Ferrari hopes to see at least one of its drivers on the podium on Sunday. Team boss Stefano Domenicali said after qualifying that he believes reliability will be the key factor during the race.
Speaking about Ferrari's result in qualifying, Domenicali said: “We can be reasonably satisfied with today’s outcome. Fernando had a great qualifying, getting all the potential out of the car.
"A shame for Felipe, who could have finished higher, although his chances of having a good race are still intact. Looking to tomorrow, clearly our aim is to get a podium finish.
“We start behind what looks like the untouchable Red Bulls, but several times this year we have seen our car prove to be more competitive in the race than in qualifying. It will be important to get a good start and, as usual in fact, reliability remains the key factor.
"Usually in qualifying, you see all the potential in terms of performance and for us it is encouraging to see that on a track whose characteristics definitely do not favour our car, the extensive work of the past few weeks is reaping its rewards: now we must transform that into results.”
