On tracks where he performs well, he makes Raikkonen look average. Massa’s average grid position is 3.2, compared with Raikkonen’s 3.9 which prove Massa’s edge over a single lap. He is an expert at qualifying and can pull a lap out of the bag when its least expected in any conditions. In qualifying, Massa definitely has the edge. Massa has made Raikkonen’s life very difficult. Surprisingly, it hasn’t happened that way. Raikkonen, fresh from being a world champion, would be able to dominate his teammate and take the team lead with ease. However, here are all the stats you need, along with my reviews on each teammate war, and who has come out on top in each team.Ĭoming into the season, most people expected Massa to flounder without Traction Control.
#RACE DRIVER GRID TEAMMATE DRIVERS#
The stats for how often a driver has finished ahead of his teammate can be a bit deceiving at times, as one of the drivers in the team may have retired whilst racing ahead of their teammate which is obviously bad luck, as opposed to being slower than your teammate. Qualifying is the best way to compare the speed between two drivers it proves how fast a driver you are. So far, a lot of the inter-team rivalries haven’t gone the way that a lot of pundits and fans were expecting. Beating their teammates can also launch them to stardom, as we saw with Lewis Hamilton last season. It is very important, particularly for rookies, not to be beaten badly by their teammates in their first season. Remember the difference between Sato and Ide in Super Aguri’s first season the sheer difference between the pair ended Ide’s career after just four races in 2006. While neither driver scored points, 94% predict Schumacher will end the season above his teammate.ĭo you agree with these results? Let us know in the comments below.When a driver gets heavily beaten by his teammate, it can lead to his confidence and soul being completely destroyed. Mick outqualified Mazepin 20 to 0, reaching Q2 twice in France and Turkey and finishing ahead of his teammate 16 times in the 21 races they competed in.
Schumacher and Mazepin are back together again for 2022. He’ll be joined by new kid on the block, Guanyu Zhou, who’s making history as China’s first full-time F1 driver. Moving over Mercedes, Valtteri Bottas needs to use all his knowledge and experience to help Alfa. Despite having a year away, fans still think Albon will beat Latifi, although he’s about to start his third consecutive year with the team. WILLIAMSĪ familiar face has returned to the grid, albeit for a different team. After a bit of a rollercoaster ride in 2021, fans still think he will be the better of the Aston Martin duo. There is still a big belief in Sebastian Vettel. Once again, fans think Pierre Gasly will be the lead at AlphaTauri and Yuki will still be the number two at the team. There wasn’t so much of a battle at AlphaTauri last season, as much as a one-sided knockout. The two-time champ did manage a podium in Qatar in 2021 and has high hopes for Alpine with the new regulations. ALPINEĭespite sealing his first F1 win last year, fans still think Esteban Ocon will be second-best to Fernando Alonso this season. However, after a bit of a nightmare season, the fans have changed their opinion of the Aussie and think Norris will beat him again this season. When Danny Ric moved to McLaren last season, 77% of fans thought he’d beat Lando in his first year. It’s Carlos Sainz that has come out ahead of Leclerc, though! Do you agree with the fan vote? MCLAREN
Separated by only 5.5 points in the Drivers’ Championship last year, it should come as no surprise that the close on-track battle between Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc continues amongst fans. An overwhelming 95% believe reigning champion Max Verstappen will be the better of the two. Poor Checo! Despite the Mexican Minister of Defence’s best efforts, this one was no contest. But despite the hype around Russell and making his step up to the big time, fans still have faith in seven-time champ Hamilton as he dominated the fan vote. We’ve all been waiting for this line-up Lewis Hamilton versus George Russell. Nearly 90,000 of you responded to our Twitter poll asking you to decide which of the 2022 teammates will finish higher this season? MERCEDES So that’s exactly what we’ve done here at WTF1. Equal machinery means it’s down to them to show off their talents, or lack thereof. They say the only fair comparison between drivers is to their teammates. The arrival of the new cars has seen some teams choose to stick with their line-ups, whilst there have been plenty of major driver changes elsewhere on the grid. We can’t wait for the 2022 season to finally get underway.
