Rosberg-Hamilton 1-2 in superior Mercedes

This is getting boring isn't it? Nico Rosberg went fastest by 0.065s for the superior Mercedes team in first practice for the 2014 Formula 1 German Grand Prix at Hockenheim.

At this point the Mercedes drivers are sandbagging and just playing with the opposition in the Friday morning track cleaning session.

Ferrari's Fernando Alonso was third, 0.292s off Rosberg's pace.

Williams tester Susie Wolff was just two tenths of a second off the pace of teammate Felipe Massa, not a bad result for the PR stunt.
