Sebastian Vettel kept Ferrari on top of the Chinese GP timesheet as heavy rain arrived to saturate the Shanghai circuit for final practice on Saturday morning. However, despite the likelihood of the later qualifying hour also being disrupted by wet weather, Mercedes chose not to set any timed laps with Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg.Rain was heavily falling at the start of final practice and it was 15 minutes until cars were seen on track, with Williams the first team to dispatch theirs on the full wet tyre. Conditions slowly improved to the point where intermediates could be used - before the rain stopped completely - and Vettel went quickest with a lap of 1:57.351, which was seven tenths quicker than second-fastest man Valtteri Bottas.But in another potential reliability concern for Ferrari after issues in each of the first two races, Vettel reported a gearbox glitch during the course of his fastest lap. He made his way back to the pit lane and then sat out the remainder of the session. The Mercedes pair were among eight drivers who did not set a lap time, with Hamilton and Rosberg only entering track for exploratory laps on the full wet rubber in the early stages. With the timesheet largely irrelevant, Sergio Perez was third for Force India ahead of Toro Rossos Carlos Sainz and the Haas of Esteban Gutierrez.Britains Jolyon Palmer was sixth for Renault, but suffered a right-rear puncture with bodywork rubbing against the tyre thought to have caused the problem. The Enstone team had suffered a left-rear puncture on Kevin Magnussens car on Friday and made suspension changes as a result. When is Chinese GP on Sky?

Ransom hit a tiebreaking, three-run homer in the seventh inning and Jackson pitched the Cubs to a 4-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday. "Hes doing everything and more than what we expected when we picked him up," Cubs manager Dale Sveum said of Ransom, who has been with eight teams in 11 seasons. Ransom connected off reliever Justin Wilson (5-1) for his sixth home run of the season. Darwin Barney and Julio Borbon were on base after the Cubs were held hitless for 5 2-3 innings by Pirates starter Jeff Locke. "Im playing a little more consistently than I ever have," Ransom said. "Last year with the Brewers I got to play a little bit but that was the most Ive ever played. "I know if theres a lefty pitching Im going to be in there more times than not. Dale has made it kind of easy for me preparing." The Cubs right-handed hitting, platoon third baseman had alertly taken an extra base in the sixth, leading to a game-tying run after he had been picked off in the third following a walk. His run tied the game for Jackson, who was trying to avoid the frustration of a ninth loss. Edwin Jackson (2-8) had his best and longest outing of the season, striking out eight in seven innings. He allowed four hits and a walk as the Cubs salvaged the finale of a three-game series. "Sometimes we take the game too serious and we are kind of confined in a bubble," Jackson said. "Today I was just able to come out of that bubble and have some fun out there. "Maybe taking it too serious is kind of a way to describe it." Kevin Gregg pitched the ninth for his seventh save in seven chances, completing a six-hitter as the Cubs avoided a sweep of the three-game series. Chicago manufactured a game-tying run in the sixth before Dioner Navarro got the teams first hit on a two-out single to left. Ransoms alert baserunning led to the tying run. He went from first to third on an infield grounder and later scored on Scott Hairstons sacrifice fly. "Hes a gamer," Jackson said about Ransom. "When hes out there hes playing to win. Hes an aggressive player. "He took advantage of the situation to go from first to third. Thats the kind of player he is." Locke issued a leadoff walk to Ransom in the sixth. Pirates second baseman Neil Walker fielded Anthony Rizzos grounder in the hole and had tto race to the bag to get the putout because first baseman Garrett Jones was out of position trying to field the ball.dddddddddddd No one covered third on the play and Ransom took the extra base. After Alfonso Soriano walked, Hairstons sacrifice fly to centre made it 1-all. Pittsburgh took a 1-0 lead in the fourth when Andrew McCutcheon doubled and Jones followed with an RBI single. Locke was wild all game, walking a season-high seven while striking out six. He left with a one-hitter and the game tied at 1 after 100 pitches in 5 2-3 innings. "I didnt really know that I didnt give up any hits because there was somebody on base every inning," Locke. "Multiple people the whole time. I was pitching from the stretch no matter what. "Good and bad at the same time. Ill take the things I did good and push forward." Wilson allowed Ryan Sweeneys single in the seventh, and pinch-hitter Borbon bunted into a force at second. Barney singled and Ransom followed with his three-run drive. "I just have to make a better pitch there," Wilson said. "Good job of hitting. "I didnt get it far enough in there and he got the barrel to it and it got up in the jet stream and the ball went out." The Pirates pitched well otherwise throughout the series. They held the Cubs to two earned runs through the first 23 2-3 innings of the series. NOTES: Navarro reached base four times, walking twice and singling twice. ... The Cubs failed to get a hit in each of the series three games until at least the fifth inning. ... Barney moved back into the leadoff spot.
