Post-GP Statistical Analysis: Turkey
Michele Merlino analyses the results and stats from round 5 of the championship, and highlights the movements on the all-time record tables
After five races it's time to draw a balance of the various in-team battles in qualifying.
There are three drivers that this year always qualified in front of their teammates, and they are Toyota's Jarno Trulli, Renault's Fernando Alonso, and BMW's Robert Kubica. Force India's Giancarlo Fisichella could have been the fourth one, but a penalty in Turkey demoted him three places down the order, ending up behind teammate Adrian Sutil.
One driver that looks like having a difficult time in qualifying is world champion Kimi Raikkonen, who was beaten four times out of five by teammate Felipe Massa this year.
