We look at how the drivers are faring in their intra-team qualifying and race battles in 2015 at the midpoint of the season.

Please note: For the purposes of this feature a driver is awarded one point if they beat their team-mate in qualifying and with the same formula applied to the race results.

The results are taken from the official FIA classification and if both drivers retire from a race the score is given to the driver classified higher by the governing body.

Maldanado & Grosjean... (rofl)

Two races into the year I said I like Sainz's performance over Verstappen. I think they're a great pairing for Toro Rosso but IMO Verstappen came in a whirlwind of hyped up speed and maturity. He's only shown one of the two which is why Sainz is steady and ahead.

When you are torn between choices, always pick the one that will make the best story. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

What's funny is that the Merc battle is pretty much as one sided as Ferrari, but look at the points difference between both pairs of drivers. Rosberg is still so strongly in contention thanks to the default no.2 position...if these Mercs were in midfield, Nico might be fighting for a contract right now.

2019 - The year Mercedes knocks Ferrari off their perch.

I like them both but can't help prefering Max. In fact Id say Max is my secind favourite driver after Lewis. I think I like him Because he's so fast and even though so very young he withstands the criticism when he has a go and it doesn't work out. And he still has a go next time. Sainz, yes he's steady and has been getting the points but sometimes I forget he's in the race.
