Nico Rosberg fastest in final practice

Mercedes's Nico Rosberg posts the fastest time in third practice for this weekend's Brazilian Grand Prix.

Nico Rosberg has posted the fastest time in third practice ahead of this weekend's Brazilian Grand Prix at Interlagos.

The German, who was also quickest in both of yesterday's sessions, narrowly edged Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton, who recovered from a spin early on.

Williams duo Felipe Massa, who is competing at his home race, and Valtteri Bottas were the best of the rest, finishing third and fourth respectively.

Fernando Alonso, who suffered an engine fire yesterday, completed an uneventful run to finish eighth, just behind Ferrari teammate Kimi Raikkonen.

McLaren's Jenson Button was not happy with his car yesterday, but the team seems to have resolved its issues overnight, as the Briton was sixth fastest.
