ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates - Lewis Hamilton edged Formula One title rival Nico Rosberg in the both practice sessions Friday for the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.The British driver posted a best lap of 1 minute, 42.113 seconds in the second practice at the Yas Marina circuit to finish .083 faster than his Mercedes teammate.Both drivers gave their super-soft tires a good run in the warm evening.There is still more time to be found. The car feels great, the best Ive ever driven here without doubt, said Hamilton, the 2008 F1 champion. Coming into the weekend I was already excited and couldnt wait to get out on track. When you know you have a package as competitive as ours, its like being a kid at Christmas.McLaren driver Kevin Magnussen of Denmark was .782 behind in third, with Sebastian Vettel, who is leaving Red Bull to join Ferrari next year, .846 adrift in fourth.Two-time champion Fernando Alonso — preparing for his last race with Ferrari — failed to set a time after stalling early on. British driver Jenson Button, possibly preparing for his last race in F1, pitted early with a brake problem.Hamilton beat Rosberg in the first practice, and there is a third session on Saturday before qualifying. Rosberg has taken pole ahead of Hamilton in three of the past four races.I really havent got my best lap together yet, Rosberg said. I just need to fine-tune it so that the set-up is exactly to my liking, then go for it and get the job done.Hamilton leads Rosberg by 17 points. But with double points available on Sunday, the German driver can secure his maiden F1 title if he wins and Hamilton finishes third.I try and approach it as a normal weekend, Rosberg said. Of course its not because of the opportunity, but otherwise the approach is the same.Without the double points, Hamilton would have only needed to finish sixth to beat his childhood friend and go-karting rival.He has everything to lose and I have everything to win. That can make all the difference, said Rosberg, who beat Hamilton two weeks ago in Brazil to end his run of five straight wins.Hamilton won the Abu Dhabi GP in 2011. But he finished seventh last year, starting from fourth on the grid, and retired the year before after starting from pole.However, Hamilton, should be mentally well prepared, since he is used to close finishes.He missed out on the 2007 title with McLaren, finishing one point behind champion Kimi Raikkonen, but made amends by edging out Ferrari driver Felipe Massa by the same margin the following year.Although he was one of four drivers in contention in the last race of the season in 2010 — also held in Abu Dhabi — Hamilton was a rank outsider for the title and finished 16 points behind Vettel, who clinched the first of his titles.In the first practice, Hamilton clocked 1:43.476, with Rosberg finishing .133 back.Alonso was third best, .1708 behind, with Vettel .1858 behind in fourth.Mercedes has crushed the competition this season, winning 15 of 18 races and securing 17 pole positions so far: 10 for Rosberg and seven for Hamilton, who leads Rosberg 10-5 in wins.Is there anybody out there who believes that it was a boring season? Not one single soul, Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff said. Our drivers were battling each other to the limit, and I am sure that the fans appreciate that.Button also went back to the garage early in the first session. The 2009 champions future remains uncertain, with Alonso expected to replace him at McLaren next season. Ryan Kalil Jersey .

A number of fighters in the division can make the same claim. But the 32-year-old Lawler is the clear-cut favourite with four wins and a narrow loss in his five fights since returning to the UFC. "Everythings clicking at the right time," Lawler said. "Before, I wasnt ready for the stage. I didnt want to do these interviews. I didnt want to be in front of the cameras. I just wanted to beat people up and get out. Ive grown up now. Im doing what it takes to be a really good fighter." Lawlers lone loss since coming back was to Johny Hendricks at UFC 171 in March when the two fought for the vacant title left open after former champ Georges St. Pierre stepped down, saying he needed a break from the sport. Lawler (23-10, 19 KOs) is expected to get another crack at Hendricks, provided the top-ranked contender beats knockout artist Matt Brown (21-11, 13 KOs) in Saturdays main event at the SAP Center. It will be the Lawlers fifth fight in the past year. Included in those were knockout wins against Bobby Voelker and Jake Ellenberger, and a split-decision over Rory MacDonald. The win over Ellenberger on May 24 put Lawler firmly back into the title hunt after his loss to Hendricks in March. "Its good. It kept me busy, kept me working," Lawler said. "I didnt have to go into these last two camps trying to get into shape, so I could work on things. I could work on fine-tuning skills and just get better day to day." Lawler left the UFC a decade ago after consecutive losses to Nick Diaz and Evan Turner in 2004. On the fast track since his return, Lawler acknowledged he has watched very little tape of the scrappy Brown, who has woon his past seven fights — six by knockout.dddddddddddd. "I didnt watch any Ellenberger fights either," Lawler said. "I have about five or six coaches that do all the breaking down for me, and then they put me in those situations in practice. Its always worked out pretty good. So when Im in the fight, Ive already been there a million times." Hendricks, on the mend from an arm injury, has already made it clear he expects to fight the winner of the Lawler-Brown matchup, possibly early next year. Thats fine with Lawler, who plans to take a much-needed respite following his fight with Brown. Brown, ranked fifth in the welterweight division, is also looking to use the fight as a springboard into title contention. The 33-year-old veteran fighter hasnt lost since getting submitted by Seth Baczynski at UFC 139 in 2011. Brown is considered one of the most intense fighters in the UFC, and he did nothing to dispel that reputation during a public workout earlier this week. He brushed off talk of being an underdog and took a minor dig at his opponent when asked if he was a fan of Lawler. "I was more of a Nick Diaz fan when he knocked (Lawler) out," Brown said with a laugh. To prepare for the fight, Brown said he reverted back to his former style of training after previously being criticized for overworking. The workouts included carrying wheelbarrows and sleds, along with other fighters, up long, steep mountain trails. "I said, Lets go back to being raw, crazy, stupid ... in our backyard and just wrecking each other every day," Brown said. "I think it worked out good. We brought in tough guys and we just beat the (heck) out of each other. Its called getting back to the primitive, back to the raw, back to whats real. Back to what got me here."
