Norris Leads Piastri in Sao Paulo Practice
Lando Norris has outscored his teammate at all of the past five race weekends.
The McLaren driver edged out fellow driver and title rival the Australian for the fastest time in the final moments of practice at the Brazilian Grand Prix.
Norris, who grabbed the points lead from his teammate by just one point after his victory in Mexico City a fortnight back, beat the Australian by a mere 0.023s.
Earlier in the session, Oscar Piastri had been the leading McLaren throughout the hour before sprint qualifying set to begin at 18:30 GMT.
The Red Bull star, the sole remaining contender in the points battle, sitting 36 points behind Norris, finished in P17 as his Red Bull team followed a alternative strategy.
Verstappen's team-mate the Japanese driver was the sole competitor to crash, if briefly, when he spun at Turn Four during the early running.
Tsunoda slid over the exit kerbs before sliding over the escape zone, and was fortunate to escape with just a minor contact of the wall.
Ferrari's the seven-time champion also lost it, at the very end of the session, turning around through the quick descending corner approaching the final corner on to the pit straight.
Hamilton finished practice in P19, just behind teammate Charles Leclerc.
The McLaren pair were far ahead of the other competitors, with the German's Sauber third fastest, over half a second off the Australian's time.
Aston Martin's the Spanish driver was fourth fastest, with Sauber's Gabriel Bortoleto fifth from Mercedes' Russell and the Alpine of Pierre Gasly and the Williams of Carlos Sainz.
