2025 F1 team-mate race head-to-head battles

Across the 2025 season, there are a total of 30 races split between 24 grands prix and six shorter sprint events dotted through the year.  With the F1 calendar, the longest it has ever been, it is useful to see who is ahead of their team-mates and who is struggling on a Sunday afternoon.  In the table below, we have calculated the head-to-head race scores overall, and then again once any retirements, disqualifications, non-starts and withdrawals are factored in.  For the average finishing position, this has been calculated by adding up the positions a driver has been classified in, then dividing it by the number of times they were classified. It is why Lando Norris is credited with an 18th place finish in the Canadian GP despite crashing out three laps from the end after colliding with team-mate Oscar Piastri. As he had completed over 90% of the race distance, Norris was classified 18th. If this result is credited as a DNF, and the calculation made over his 11 finishes, his average would be 1.9, but with the classified result of 18th, Norris's average race finish climbs to 3.2, behind Piastri's 2.5. The table does not include sprint events, which are in a second table below.  2025 F1 team-mate race head-to-heads 2025 F1 team-mate sprint race head-to-heads Max Verstappen's one defeat to a team-mate, as of the 2025 British GP, came in the Miami sprint when he was a penalised 10th after pit-lane contact with Kimi Antonelli.  Yuki Tsunoda finished sixth in that race, handing Verstappen his only defeat where both Red Bull cars have finished since the 2023 Azerbaijan GP where he was second and Sergio Perez won. Tsunoda did finish 16th in the Austrian GP after Verstappen posted a DNF after being eliminated in a first lap crash with Antonelli.
