Who is the strongest teammate in F1?

The team mate battles view allows you to see how F1 drivers compare verus (all) of their teammates.

The first objective of any driver is to beat his teammate. Therefore the 'teammate' provides an interesting yardstick to gauge driver performance. Note that below results cannot be taken in absolute terms, since (naturally) the strength of a respective team mate weighs heavily in this comparison. And in addition, while current teams are allowed 2 drivers, back in the day one team could field a multitude of drivers for the same GP. So a driver would have more competition to get a good result. And on the flipside, in below statistic, is rewarded more heavily in the process for outperforming his teammates.

The statistics below show the full career results for each driver. To view drivers from a specific season only, select one from the menu above. It will still use the career data. To see the teambattle-performance for one season only, go to the season view.

Final note: only drivers with more than 5 GP entries are shown here (though all results are used in calculation). This view is based on finishing position achieved versus every teammate in every GP.

Explanation
The team battle view drivers are compared based on their individual performance against all of their teammates based on finishing position in any GP. The number of battles won is calculate as +1 for a battle won and -1 for a battle lost. So if a drivers has a total of zero he has won as many as he lost. The number is than divided by the total number of team battles.

Drivers are ranked based on the average position / team battle in a GP.
You can select the switch on top to sort the list based on most or least average position.
You can select drivers from a specific season only, by selecting a season from the menu.

Note: only drivers with more than 5 GP entries are shown here. All results for all drivers are used in calculation (also those with 5 or less GP to there name.
