George Russell fastest in final practice at Las Vegas Grand Prix as Mercedes man edges Oscar Piastri and home favorite Logan Sargeant before qualifying in Sin City

Finally, there is some racing to talk about in Las Vegas with George Russell leading the way ahead of qualifying with the fastest time in the third and final practice session on Friday night.

The Mercedes man edges Oscar Piastri of McLaren and home favorite Logan Sargent of Williams in third. Russell led the way with a lap time of 1:34.093.

Max Verstappen was fourth and Lewis Hamilton, Russell's Mercedes teammate, was down in eighth.

The session didn't go completely without a hitch, though. 

It was cut short with around five minutes to go after Alex Albon made contact with the wall, causing a wheel to come off his car.

It meant that Ferrari duo Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz were unable to finish their laps and ended the session in 16th and 17th respectively.
