Nico Rosberg fastest in final practice for German GP
HOCKENHEIM, Germany (AP) Nico Rosberg set the fastest time in the final practice for the German Grand Prix, leading Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton by a narrow .057 seconds ahead of Saturday's qualifying.
Rosberg also set the pace in the two practices Friday and looks set to grab pole for the Formula One race he won two years ago.
Two-time defending world champion Hamilton has won five of the last six races and leads Rosberg by six points in the standings.
Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo was third, .099 seconds behind, with Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen fourth, .164 back.
Ferrari teammate Sebastian Vettel was fifth, .366 behind, with Max Verstapen sixth in the second Red Bull, .444 back.
Verstappen is the only driver to win a race this season apart from Hamilton and Rosberg.
