WATCH LIVE: FP3 for the British Grand Prix on Live Extra from 5am ET - MotorSportsTalk

Nico Rosberg heads into the final free practice session for this weekend’s British Grand Prix with plenty of momentum after dominating proceedings on Friday at Silverstone.

The German driver set the pace in both FP1 and FP2 as Mercedes teammate and home favorite Lewis Hamilton struggled to find his feet, lagging to fourth in the second session.

However, with the passionate Silverstone crowd cheering Hamilton on this weekend, and with a new clutch setting on his Mercedes car, the Briton is far from out of the running for the win this weekend.

Hamilton will be hoping to get back on terms with Rosberg during the final free practice session on Saturday.

Hamilton and Rosberg are set to renew their rivalry at Silverstone this weekend, with just ten points separating the duo at the top of the drivers’ championship. Both are former winners at the home of British motor racing, meaning that we should have a thrilling fight at the front of the field.

Just behind, Ferrari, Williams and Red Bull are expected to fight it out for the final podium position, whilst the closely knit midfield fight should also provide plenty of action and drama.

FP3 will see the drivers and teams get their final chance to adjust their setups and refine their strategy ahead of qualifying later on Saturday, which is on CNBC from 8am ET.
