The Australian GP is in the rearview mirror now as the F1 circus moves on from the race Down Under. We have the championship standings settled and for now, it favors a certain scarlet team and its driver. There is, however, another battle that should never be overlooked in F1. And that is the battle of the teammates. In F1, it is said that the first driver that you have to beat is your teammate.On the F1 grid, some interesting battles are developing between the teammates. Let's find out who gained had the upper hand and who fell short against their teammates.2022 F1 Australian GP: Teammate rivalryMercedesLewis Hamilton vs George Russell (1-2)Winner: George RussellMercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team@MercedesAMGF1Smiles on a Sunday 10:30 AM · Apr 10, 202211806526Smiles on a Sunday 😃😁 https://t.co/DvUxX4K3hVIt's fair to say that Lewis Hamilton had the measure of George Russell during the weekend. He out-qualified his younger teammate and was ahead on the track early in the race. Yet, when fortune turned things around and swapped places between the two drivers, it was evident that Russell was able to hold his own against Hamilton and grab his first podium for the team. That's one in the column for Russell over his teammate.Red BullMax Verstappen vs Sergio Perez (3-0)Winner: Max VerstappenOracle Red Bull Racing@redbullracingNo fear @SChecoPerez #F110:00 AM · Apr 10, 2022186161715No fear @SChecoPerez 😲 #F1https://t.co/NrLMZoJfGdMax Verstappen would have finished second in the race if it wasn't for his retirement. Sergio Perez has been able to up his game in qualifying and his second place in the race is a testament to his form this season. Having said that, the Mexican is still missing a few tenths against his teammateFerrariCharles Leclerc vs Carlos Sainz (3-0)Winner: Charles LeclercFormula 1@F1A race to remember for the Tifosi #AusGP #F1 @ScuderiaFerrari4:00 AM · Apr 10, 2022159101231A race to remember for the Tifosi ❤️#AusGP #F1 @ScuderiaFerrari https://t.co/wlINUDaJ1pCharles Leclerc is driving like a driver of his caliber should. The Australian GP was just another weekend where Leclerc put his teammate in the shade. So much so that Sainz ended up in the gravel early in the race trying to overcompensate for his poor track position.McLarenLando Norris vs Daniel Ricciardo (3-0)Winner: Lando NorrisMcLaren@McLarenF1Well said, @LandoNorris. #AusGP 3:28 AM · Apr 10, 20226424355Well said, @LandoNorris. 👏#AusGP 🇦🇺 https://t.co/PqJToamJY1Daniel Ricciardo appeared to be marginally the quicker driver for McLaren throughout the Australian GP. When it came to making a definitive pass over his teammate, however, neither could he mount a challenge nor did he ever attempt a pass.Norris, on the other hand, was sublime in qualifying and used that advantage to hold track position against his teammate.AlpineFernando Alonso vs Esteban Ocon (1-2)Winner: Esteban OconEsteban Ocon@OconEstebanP7 in Melbourne. More good points but mixed emotions about our weekend as a team. So head down and let’s keep pushing, together. Thank you and peace out Straya #AusGP2:05 AM · Apr 10, 2022202495P7 in Melbourne. More good points but mixed emotions about our weekend as a team. So head down and let’s keep pushing, together. Thank you and peace out Straya ✌️ #AusGP https://t.co/Dxc6IYneLzThis might be a slightly controversial pick. It is without a doubt clear that Fernando Alonso's lap in Q3 was destined to be special. The Spaniard was phenomenal on Saturday only for fortune to ruin it.In the race, however, it did appear that both Alonso and Esteban Ocon had similar pace in the car. Both the cars suffered from graining on the medium tires which forced them to drop back from the competition. To add to this, Ocon started the race in 8th and finished in 7th. Alonso started 10th and finished effectively last in the race. Looking at these numbers, it doesn't seem fair to give this one to Alonso.Aston MartinSebastian Vettel/Nico Hulkenberg vs Lance Stroll (2-1)Winner: Lance StrollAston Martin Aramco Cognizant F1 Team@AstonMartinF1A tough weekend for Seb, but we'll keep pushing.

The German driver crashed his car in FP3 and effectively missed Qualifying. To add to this, he had next to no running in FP1 and FP2. He ended his Australian GP weekend by crashing and retiring his car.For Lance Stroll, the most memorable part of the Australian GP was him getting a penalty for weaving on the straights as well as his strange driving standards. In a battle of who was less bad, Stroll gets the vote.AlphaTauriPierre Gasly vs Yuki Tsunoda (3-0)Winner: Pierre GaslyScuderia AlphaTauri@AlphaTauriF1bringing it into the points after a difficult weekend just @PierreGASLY things 2:39 AM · Apr 10, 202254953bringing it into the points after a difficult weekend 👊 just @PierreGASLY things 😎It was all pretty straightforward for Pierre Gasly over the weekend. AlphaTauri is not as fast as Alpine or McLaren at the moment and therefore whatever points he can get, it's a win. At the Australian GP, it was once again the same story and Gasly screeched through for a couple of points.Yuki Tsunoda was there or thereabouts, but always a couple of tenths off Gasly and bringing the car home in points.Alfa RomeoValtteri Bottas vs Guanyu Zhou (3-0)Winner: Valtteri BottasAlfa Romeo F1 Team ORLEN@alfaromeoorlen🎙️“I really enjoyed the race today, it was a good performance with close racing and battles from beginning to end.

The Finnish driver enjoys a clear performance advantage over his rookie teammate and it showed in the Australian GP as well.WilliamsAlex Albon vs Nicholas Latifi (3-0)Winner: Alex AlbonWilliams Racing@WilliamsRacing"A testament to the hard work being done at the track and the factory" @alex_albon praises the team following his P10 finish! 4:58 AM · Apr 10, 20222739194"A testament to the hard work being done at the track and the factory" 👏@alex_albon praises the team following his P10 finish! 💙 https://t.co/P9AdWFvRHAAlex Albon just laid down a claim for a seat on the Red Bull senior team. Scoring points for a Williams, especially in the way that he did at the Australian GP, does show that Albon is no slouch.What this also shows is that Nicholas Latifi can't help but break carbon fiber on his car every weekend.HaasMick Schumacher vs Kevin Magnussen (1-2)Winner: Mick SchumacherHaas F1 Team@HaasF1TeamK-Mag did his best today but the double early safety car put pay to his strategy.#HaasF1 #AusGP2:00 AM · Apr 10, 202292822K-Mag did his best today but the double early safety car put pay to his strategy.#HaasF1 #AusGP https://t.co/OKTFURB8W0This was a little hard to judge as Haas suffered a mysterious drop in form at the Australian GP. The car was just not good enough to score points here and that left the two Haas drivers fighting it out down the order.Mick Schumacher out-qualified Kevin Magnussen for the Australian GP and beat him in the race as well to take the honors.
