Ralf Schumacher secured Toyota's aim of qualifying both cars in the top 5. His fifth place also secured that both Toyota's will start in front of both Japanese rival Honda-powered BAR cars.

Here's what Ralf thought of his lap:

"All in all that was a pretty good lap for me. It was difficult to get the
optimum out of the car because I had a bit of oversteer, but it was
reasonably clean. And being fifth on the grid sets us up well for tomorrow, particularly because we will start on the clean side of the grid. We think we've got a good strategy so we'll have to see how it works out. We're certainly aiming for another good result. Since they changed the layout at the first corner there are more chances for passing here. The race will be long in the heat so it's a matter of making no mistakes and hoping for the best."
