Worst team-mates
Inspired by Knock-on's comment about Schumacher being one of the worst performing team-mates over the last 3 years, I decided to look up the championship points tables and work out just who have been the tardiest team-mates in that period. Each line shows the name of the driver, the team-mate they were beaten by, their team and their championship points score as a % of their team-mate's score.
Italics indicate scores that are less statistically valid because both drivers had 2 or fewer points scores, or both scored less than 10 points in total. And the unquantifiable bottom 3 teams are omitted.
2010:
Code:1 Petrov (Kubica, Renault) 20% 2 De La Rosa (Kobayashi, Sauber) 29% 3 Liuzzi (Sutil, Force India) 45% 4 Hulkenberg (Barrichello, Williams) 47% 5 Schumacher (Rosberg, Mercedes) 51%
Code:1 De La Rosa (Kobayashi, Sauber) 0% 2 Maldonado (Barrichello, Williams) 25% 3 Senna (Petrov, Renault) 40% 4 Massa (Alonso, Ferrari) 46% 5 Buemi (Alguersuari, Torro Rosso) 58%
Code:1 D'Ambrosio (Raikkonen, Renault) 0% 2 Massa (Alonso, Ferrari) 36% 3 Schumacher (Rosberg, Mercedes) 46% 4 Grosjean (Raikkonen, Renault) 56% 5 Webber (Vettel, Red Bull) 71%
In 2012, Grosjean's score is surprisingly decent for a guy who crashes or gets banned every other race.
Finally looking at the top 4 teams, who have all had stable driver pairings, over the 3 years:
Code:1 Massa (Alonso, Ferrari) 47% 2 Schumacher (Rosberg, Mercedes) 59% 3 Webber (Vettel, Red Bull) 76% 4 Button (Hamilton, McLaren) 99%
I'm coming from Norway for Solberg at least, decided on Thursday to go :) Bit warm for my liking but weather looks almost perfect ...
