Hamilton puts the hammer down in final practice


AUSTIN Texas (Reuters) - Formula One championship leader Lewis Hamilton rounded off a hat-trick of fastest laps in U.S. Grand Prix practice on Saturday with Mercedes team mate and title rival Nico Rosberg 0.883 of a second slower after suffering a brake problem.

The Mercedes pair were again one-two on the timesheets after Hamilton went fastest in both of Friday's sessions, with Brazilian Felipe Massa third fastest for Williams on a clear and crisp Texas morning.
