Lewis Hamilton eased to McLaren's 150th pole position on Saturday for the Hungarian Grand Prix with a time four tenths faster than second placed Romain Grosjean.
The pole marks McLaren's return to the front after a difficult few races which have seen them off the lead pace set by Ferrari and Red Bull.
Grosjean starts ahead of Sebastian Vettel in third, with Hamilton's team-mate Jenson Button in fourth, seven tenths slower than the pole lap.
Kimi Raikkonen completes the top five with Fernando Alonso, Felipe Massa, Pastor Maldonado, Bruno Senna - his first time in Q3, and Nico Hulkenberg complete the top ten cars.
Mark Webber was the surprise of Q2 as he failed to escape the drop-zone and starts 11th ahead of Force India's Paul di Resta.
