Nico Rosberg set the pace in Saturday’s final practice for the Spanish GP while team-mate Lewis Hamilton refused to show his hand.
On another warm morning in Spain, McLaren’s Danish driver Kevin Magnussen got proceedings underway with a 1:28.771 as Sebastian Vettel, in need of making up time after completing just four laps on Friday with an electrical problem, was also quickly into the action, going second quickest.
Kimi Raikkonen had a turn at the front as did Fernando Alonso, however, when the Mercedes duo came out for their first runs they immediately claimed the 1-2.
Nico Rosberg went quickest by a full second over Alonso only to lose out to Lewis Hamilton by 0.3s. The German jumped ahead again by two-tenths while Hamilton backed off, leaving everyone wondering what he really could do.
Don’t tell me Merc is going to let Nico win one! . . . Nah!
I’m confident Nico will get this one.
