MONZA, Italy (AP)—Sebastian Vettel set the fastest time in the Italian Grand Prix practice.
The Red Bull driver had the fastest lap of 1 minute, 22.839 seconds around the Monza circuit to deny local favorite Fernando Alonso the best time. The Ferrari driver was less than one-tenth of a second off the pace.
Ferrari teammate Felipe Massa was third ahead of McLaren pair Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button after the afternoon session.
Vettel finished outside of the points at the Belgian Grand Prix after crashing into Button following a mistake that also ended the British driver’s race.
