Rafael Nadal has denied that he refused to use a tournament car with Roger Federer's picture on the sides. "That's never happen[ed]," he said. "I was in a van [with] the picture of Roger, both sides of the van, like 15 times these two weeks.

A tabloid report said Nadal had asked for another car on Tuesday night.

"Speaking seriously, is better the other side -- I want this car because is bigger, and I am more comfortable with this car than with the others," said Nadal.
