SUZUKA, Japan -- There was nearly nothing to choose between the two Mercedes drivers during second practice for the Japanese Grand Prix as Nico Rosberg held a slim 0.072s margin over teammate Lewis Hamilton at Suzuka.Both Mercedes drivers improved on their first practice times, but there was very little to choose between them, with Hamilton 0.001s up in sector one, Rosberg 0.044s quicker in sector two and 0.029s faster in the final sector. Both drivers set their fastest time on the soft compound tyre before moving onto a nine lap run on the same tyres and then splitting run plans with Rosberg completing a long run on the mediums and Hamilton on the hards.Kimi Raikkonen was Mercedes closest competitor with a lap time just 0.323s shy of Rosbergs best effort. The Ferrari driver was 0.530s faster than teammate Sebastian Vettel, but still complained of understeer during the session.Max Verstappen split the two Ferraris but both Red Bulls had their soft tyre run interrupted by a Virtual Safety Car for Esteban Gutierrezs stricken Haas, which pulled to the side of the track with a turbo issue. As a result, Verstappen returned to the pits on his outlap and when he went out again he complained about a lack of tyre temperature and no grip. Daniel Ricciardos quick lap was also interrupted by the VSC and finished the session 12th overall.The absence of the second Red Bull in the top ten saw the Force Indias move up to sixth and seventh, with Sergio Perez 0.303s quicker than Nico Hulkenberg. Fernando Alonso was eighth fastest after McLaren-Honda fitted a new exhaust to his car following his accident in FP1. Valtteri Bottas and Carlos Sainz rounded out the top ten, which was covered by 1.836s in total.Felipe Massa was 11th fastest ahead of Ricciardo and Romain Grosjean. Kevin Magnussen was 15th fastest in the Renault and was one of a handful of drivers who ran wide at various parts of the track. Magnussen and Raikkonen ran wide at the hairpin, while Felipe Nasr spun off at Spoon corner towards the end of the session, but the accolade for the most impressive incident had to go to Daniil Kvyat who completed a 360 degree spin coming on to the pit straight. The Toro Rosso driver went on the grass on the exit of the chicane and spun through the DRS marker board before catching the spin just as his car started pointing in the right direction again. With no major damage done, he completed the session with 27 laps and the 14th fastest time.Jenson Button finished 16th after spending much of the session complaining about the balance of his car. The 2009 world champion said it felt like McLaren had made no changes to the car despite numerous tweaks since the beginning of FP2. Esteban Gutierrez finished 17th but completed just 11 laps before his turbo issue, ahead of Jolyon Palmers Renault.Felipe Nasr finished 19th ahead of Manor pair Pascal Wehrlein and Esteban Ocon.
