Mercedes could face their closest qualifying battle of the season so far at the Spanish GP on Saturday after Ferrari closed the gap around Barcelona in final practice. Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton kept Mercedes first and second on the timesheet, but Sebastian Vettel raised the prospect of a closer fight for the front row by lapping just 0.147 seconds adrift of the world champions pace.Ferrari president Sergio Marchionne had ramped up the scrutiny on his already under-pressure team before the weekend by saying he wants them to start winning in Spain and Vettels P3 pace suggests F1s top two teams may be more equally matched this weekend. For the second successive session, Rosberg set the pace - and may have gone quicker than his 1:23.078 had he not been forced to abort his second soft-tyre run when a sensor problem struck on his W07.Despite completing his second run, Hamilton was unable to topple his team-mate again - despite setting quicker times in the first two sectors of the lap.Vote: Which team has the best driver line-up?In fact, Vettel ended the session with the fastest times in sectors one and two, with Rosbergs sector three pace - where the Mercedes was half a second quicker than the Ferrari - making the difference. Revitalised Red Bull were half a second further adrift and, for the first time since his arrival at the senior team, Max Verstappen outpaced Daniel Ricciardo.The Dutchman went a tenth quicker to take fourth, with Ricciardo losing time with a wide moment at Turn Nine. Kimi Raikkonen was only sixth in the second Ferrari, ahead of Williams Valtteri Bottas.After concentrating on a heavier-fuel programme on his first day back at Toro Rosso, Daniil Kvyat was their lead runner in P3 for the first time, finishing a promising ninth for the Red Bull junior team.Meanwhile, Fernando Alonso suggested McLaren could have their best shot at a long-awaited Q3 breakthrough by finishing 10th, with the Spaniard not carrying the intricate front wing which the team tested on Friday. Jenson Button briefly ran the new part again in final practice, before it was taken off again. The Briton, who endured a difficult opening day, finished down in 15th. Whilst sitting down with Martin Brundle in Barcelona, Lewis Hamilton says he has 1000% confidence in his mechanics, after a troublesome start to the season Practice Three timesheet1.
