Saturday afternoon's 60 minute qualifying session was divided into four groups of five cars.
Each group was determined by a lottery system and was permitted six minutes of on-track activity.
All drivers were limited to two timed laps with one at maximum power.
The fastest five overall competitors in the four groups participated in a "Super Pole" session with one driver on the track at any time going out in reverse order from fifth to first.
Each of the five drivers was limited to one timed lap and the starting order was determined by the competitor's fastest times.
The driver and team who recorded the fastest time were awarded three points towards their respective championships.
Qualifying took place in dry and warm weather.

In the first group, despite making small errors shortly before he completed his lap, Turvey paced the session, seven-hundredths of a second faster than di Grassi in second who struck the kerbs at the first chicane.
Frijns damaged his car's front-left tyre in a contact with a barrier and was third-quickest, ahead of Sarrazin who lost control of his vehicle at turn ten, causing the session to be stopped for a short period.
Vergne was the fastest driver in the second group, nearly two-tenths of a second quicker than Abt.
Bird was third-fastest, ahead of Prost who lost time after he went deep heading towards the final corner.
Rast completed the second group's running.
Heidfeld was the quickest driver in the third group, almost three-tenths of a second faster than Piquet who lost control of his car at the hairpin, losing him four-tenths of a second.
D'Ambrosio struggled to locate reference points on the track because of a lack of running in practice and was third-quickest.
Conway and de Silvestro were the two slowest drivers in the third group.
Buemi set the fastest overall fastest time of any competitor in the group stages in the fourth group with a time of 57.322 seconds.
He was 0.269 seconds faster than Senna in second.
and Duval struggled with tyre grip to finish third.
Ma Qinghua struggled and was the slowest overall driver.
After group qualifying ended, Buemi, Senna, Vergne, Heidfeld and Abt had fast enough lap times to progress them to super pole.

Abt was the first driver to attempt a lap time in super pole and made an error at the final turn in a 57.852 second lap.
Heidfeld went narrowly faster in the first third of the lap but damaged his front-left suspension in a collision with the turn eight barrier, leaving him fifth.
Vergne went quickest in the track's second sector, and despite narrowly colliding with Senna (who was leaving the pit lane) took provisional pole position with a lap of 57.811 seconds.
Senna left the pit lane with oversteer and was one-tenth of a second slower in the first sector, and went half a second down in the following sector and ran wide in the final corner, and took fourth.
Buemi, the pole position favourite, was slower than Vergne in the first third of the lap, and had similar results elsewhere to qualify second.
This meant Vergne took his first pole position of the season, the fourth of his career, and his team's third consecutive of the year.
After qualifying, Mahindra drivers Senna and Heidfeld were demoted to 15th and 16th on the grid because of irregular tyre pressures, while Sarrazin and d'Ambrosio were similarly penalised and started from the back of the field.
The rest of the grid lined up after penalties as Bird, Piquet, Prost, Turvey, di Grassi, Duval, de Silvestro, Conway, Frijns, Rast, Ma, Senna, Heidfeld, Sarrazin and d'Ambrosio.
