Lewis Hamilton was fastest in second practice for the Russian Grand Prix as his championship rival Sebastian Vettel finished only fifth.
Hamilton, who holds a 40-point lead over Ferrari driver Vettel with just six rounds remaining, ended up 0.199 seconds clear of his Mercedes team-mate Valtteri Bottas at the Sochi Autodrom.
The Red Bull duo of Max Verstappen and Daniel Ricciardo - both due to start Sunday's race from the back of the pack following grid penalties for exceeding the number of allocated engine parts - placed third and fourth respectively.
Vettel, who had been quickest in the opening running, was half-a-second down on Hamilton, while his Ferrari team-mate Kimi Raikkonen finished sixth, one second off the pace.
Hamilton was mysteriously off-colour at this venue last season, but the world champion will be encouraged by his performance in practice.
The Brit was third at the conclusion of the opening session before then soaring to the top of the time sheets with a best lap of one minute and 33.385 seconds later in the day.
With the season reaching its climax, Vettel surely must finish ahead of Hamilton on Sunday to prevent the Mercedes driver from marching to a fifth title.
