Teammate vs teammate

[F1boat]

I'm quite surprised that there isn't such topic yet, so I decided to post it. Who will win and who will lose in the teammate wars? :)

Here are my predictions:
Alonso vs Hamilton:
Fernando, easily.
Fisichella vs Kovalainen:
Fisi, barely.
Kimi vs Massa:
I don't know!
Jenson vs Rubens:
Jenson, but not as easy as last year.
Nick vs Kubica:
Draw
Trulli vs R Shumacher:
RS, easily.
Coulthard vs Webber:
DC! IMO this will be the surprise in RBR.
Nico vs Wurz:
Draw
Luizzi vs Speed:
Draw
Albers vs Sutil:
Albers, but I can't see any of them scoring points.
Taku vs Ant:
Draw

It's not the type of subject I like to discuss, cause at the end of the season I might sound like a donkey, but there are always exceptions.
So the winners:
FA
GF
FM (I hope and only by a small margin)
RB
NH
RS
DC
AW
Liuzzi vs Speed (don't know, they are bot equally bad)
Albers (but it will be difficult to differentiate them on points)
TS (not by much but still).

I hope at least half of those to be right! ;)

It'd be interesting of Wurz, Rubens, DC and Fisi beat their younger teammates (I am sure about Alonso). Maybe this could stop the invasion of the kindergarden :)

Well JB isn't that young anymore and HK is 26 and has been testing for 2 years already. As for MW he wasn't too young already when he joined F1.

They can bring new ones in F1, no problem, but saying they are F1 champion material and so on before they did even start their first F1 race is pushing the boundaries.

[Dave B]

I'll do it a different way, predicting who'll out-qualify their team-mates over the 17 sessions.

Alonso 12 - 5 Hamilton
Fisichella 7 - 10 Kovalainen
Raikkonen 8 - 9 Massa
Button 11 - 6 Barrichello
Heidfeld 6 - 11 Kubica
Trulli 9 - 8 Schumacher
Coulthard 7 - 10 Webber
Rosberg 11 - 6 Wurz
Luizzi 13 - 4 Speed
Albers 10 - 7 Sutil
Sato 5 - 12 Davidson

[harsha]

McLaren: Fernando Alonso
Ferrari: Kimi Raikonnen
Renault: Giancarlo Fisichella(only because of Heikki's relative inexperience)
Honda: Jenson Button(RB's a lap dog)
BMW: Nick Heidfeld(only just)
Toyota: Jarno Trulli(RS too inconsistent)
RBR: Mark Webber
Williams: Alex Wurz
Toro Rosso: Vitantonio Liuzzi(not much to choose from)
Spyker: Christian Albers
Super Aguri: Ant Davidson

[Mikeall]

Alonso (as good as Hamilton is Alonso will be better)
Massa (I've just got a feeling about this)
Fisichella (He'll be much stronger than last year)
Button (Barrichello couldn't keep up at the end of last year)
Heidfeld (Experience will count)
Schumacher (but it will be close again)
Webber (Coulthard never looked convincing against Klien, who Webber thrashed)
Rosberg (Wurz seems to only perform at his best when he's a substitute driver)
Liuzzi (He's just simply better than Speed)
Sutil (Albers is nothing special plus Sutil has the backing of Kolles)
Davidson (Sato was flattered by his teammates last year, he won't be this year)

McLaren: Probably the most overwhelming win in team-mate battles in favour of Alonso.
Renault: Kovalainen might be stronger in the second half of the season, but I suspect that Fisichella manages to score more points if he has the same reliability level as last year.
Ferrari: Very interesting and tough pairing. I really don't know, but hopefully will be point-to-point battle for the title. :p :
Honda: Button, but by a smaller margin than last year. Rubens will surprise on a couple of occasions. Also as the car is a bit uncompetitive, then Jenson might be unmotivated for some stage of the season.
BMW: Very close again. Maybe Heidfeld will score more points thanks to greater experience, but by raw speed they'll probably run nose-to-tail.
Toyota: Probably the same scenario as in previous years - Trulli has more mechanical problems and therefore Ralf scores more points...
RBR: Webber will be quicker.
Williams: Close, but I'd slightly prefer Rosberg.
STR. Very close, but at the second half of last year Speed already seemed to get the upper hand over Liuzzi. Maybe the American this time?
Spyker: Albers - experience. But it'll be close.
Super Aguri: Close, but expect a bit more from Sato.

[jens]

I thought that in team-mate battles Alonso will have the most clear win, but at the moment it looks the closest battle. :p :

[akv89]

After one race it looks like
Kimi over Massa
Alonso over Hamilton (barely)
Fisichella over Kovaleinen
Heidfeld over Kubica (barely)
Rosberg over Wurz
Schumacher over Trulli (barely)
Barrichello over Button
Sato over Davidson
Webber over Coulthard
Liuzzi over Speed
Sutil over Albers

[jso1985]

I was wrong about Alonso beating Hamilton easily :)
I change my prediction to barely
