Timo Scheider was fourth fastest ahead of Jamie Green and Edoardo Mortara. Gary Paffett headed Mattias Ekström in seventh and eighth, ahead of Filipe Albuquerque and David Coulthard.

The main fight for the final race of the year later today stands between Spengler and Ekström for second in the championship. Spengler heads Ekström with just two points, but the job is up to Ekström who starts tenth while Spengler starts four positions ahead.
