Alonso, who expressed his feelings in no uncertain terms after Hamilton escaped any meaningful sanction for illegally overtaking the safety car in Valencia, was happy to be lining up ahead of the Briton.
Germany's Nico Rosberg again outqualified Mercedes teammate Michael Schumacher, the younger man starting fifth with the seven
