F1 team-mates' qualifying battles: Chinese GP
Here's how things stand in 2024 team-mate duels following qualifying at Formula 1's Chinese Grand Prix.
After every F1 qualifying session, Autosport publishes each team's qualifying record in terms of team-mate duels.
This record is based exclusively on qualifying results so that grid penalties don't alter the statistics.
When a driver can't put in a representative lap time due to a technical issue or an incident, this will be mentioned in the table.
