Red Bull's Sergio Perez topped final practice for the U.S. Grand Prix in Austin on Saturday after Formula One title rivals Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton had quicker laps deleted for running wide.

Mexican Perez, a local fan favourite with no home drivers on the grid, lapped the Circuit of the Americas with a time of one minute 34.701 seconds in hot conditions. He had also ended up quickest in Friday practice.

Seven times world champion Hamilton was sixth for Mercedes, with team mate Valtteri Bottas fifth, and 0.518 slower than Perez. Bottas has a five-place grid penalty for an engine change. Organisers were expecting some 140,000 fans to attend Sunday's race, after 120,000 on Friday and Saturday, in what will be the biggest crowd of the season.

McLaren's Daniel Ricciardo, seventh fastest in the session, was having fun on track already before practice with the Australian doing laps in the late Dale Earnhardt Sr's NASCAR Chevrolet Monte Carlo.

Box Office: ‘Dune’ Tops Friday in U.S. With $17.5MDenis Villeneuve's sci-fi epic, starring Timothée Chalamet, is also launching simultaneously on HBO Max in the U.S. Good and disappointing. After the 5.1M of preview I thought it would have landed higher. HBO Max is playing a big factor on this. Film of the year. Dune was great I can’t wait for part 2. Almost wished this was a tv series so we could have so much more to look forward to.
