Both drivers were over a second behind the pole time and Sundays race again will end up with the team looking to score points rather than challenge for a win.

The opening qualifying session would see the Ferrari team the one to beat with Barrichello leading team-mate Michael Schumacher. They were followed by the Sauber's of Felipe Massa and Giancarlo Fisichella. But now it was down to the final qualifying to make up the grid for the Hungarian Grand Prix.

First driver out would be Minardi's Zsolt Baumgartner. His lap would finish with a time of 1m:24.329. Next was Gianmaria Bruni is up next in the second Minardi. The Italian would finish with a time of 1m:24.679. Jaguar's Christian Klein was next out and he would easily beat the times set by the Minardi's to take provisional pole with a lap of 1m:21.118. Team-mate Mark Webber was next out and the Australian would go faster with a time of 1m:20.730.

For McLaren's David Coulthard his lap would see him lose time in the final two sectors to finish with a time of 1m:20.897 to be behind Webber. The next group of drivers were Giorgio Pantano, Oliver Panis, Nick Heidfeld, Ricardo Zonta and Fernando Alonso.

The Jordan driver Pantano would start his lap and would set a disappointing time of 1m:22.356, to behind Klein in fourth. For Olivier Panis since Friday he has struggled and his lap would be no different just beating Klein for third with a time of 1m:21.068. For Nick Heidfeld his lap would see him ahead of Webber after sector one, but after sector two he would drop to be eight tenths behind. He would finish his lap in fifth just two tenths ahead of his team-mate. His time was a 1m:21.180.

Now it was Ricardo Zonta. Like Heidfeld he would be up on Webber after sector one but lose time in the second. He would finish in fifth behind team-mate Panis, with a lap of 1m:21.135. The 2003 race winner Alonso was next and the Renault driver would set the fastest time sin the opening two sectors to go fastest seven tenths ahead of Webber, a time of 1m:19.996.

Raikkonen would start the next group of drivers. His lap would see him set a time of 1m:20.570 to move into second behind Alonso. Pizzonia was out on his lap and was fastest in sector one, finishing his lap just one tenth behind the Renault to finish in second. Now it was Jarno Trulli's turn. The Renault driver would be up on his team-mate in sector one, but like so man others lose time in the final two sectors to move in third with a time of 1m:20.411.

With a few spots of rain now it was Jenson Button who would take to the track. The BAR driver would see him pick up time in the final two sectors to go fastest, a time of 1m:19.700. The second FW26 was next out and Juan Pablo was ahead of Button's time in sector one but would lose time over the rest of the lap to finish in fourth, behind team-mate Pizzonia. Now it was down to the final group of drivers. The first was Takuma Sato. The BAR driver would be three tenths up after sector one, four tenths up after sector two, to finish his lap in provisional pole with a time of 1m:19.693 and beat team-mate Button by seven thousands of a second.

The Sauber pair was next followed by the Ferrari's. First out was Fisichella. He would be seven tenths down after sector two, and would finish his lap in sixth with a time of 1m:20.324. Team-mate Massa was meant to be the next out but the team has decided to start him from the back of the grid.

So now it was down to Michael Schumacher and Barrichello. Michael would start his lap and he would be fastest in the first sector by two tenths even with a small error in Turn one, three tenths up after sector two and he would finish his lap with a time of 1m:19.146 to go fastest by over half a second. Any hope that BAR had of retaining pole was simply shattered. Now it was the turn of Rubens. He would be ahead of Michael after sector one, a tenth down after sector two, and he would complete his lap with a time of 1m:19.323 leaving Michael in pole position. The Ferrari pair had again demoralised their opposition.
