SINGAPORE (AP) Nico Rosberg set the fastest time in practices for the Singapore Grand Prix, while Mercedes teammate and title rival Lewis Hamilton could manage only seventh and a hydraulic failure on Friday.
Rosberg, who has won the past two races and trails Hamilton by only two points, recovered from a crash into a tire barrier in the first session at the Marina Bay street circuit.
He was a quarter of a second faster than Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen, with Red Bull's Max Verstappen a close third.
