Red Bull

Before the 2022 Sao Paulo Grand Prix, it’s unlikely Red Bull’s pairing of 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sergio Perez would ever be considered for such a list.

Given the vast performance disparity between the pair, Red Bull haꦜve a clear hierarchy in the team.

However, Perez’s impressive early season form, when Verstappen struggled to get to grips with the overweight RB18, did cause some drama which ultimately came out 🐲in the latter stages of the year.

With Perez embroiled in a tight fight for second in the drivers’ championship against 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Charles Leclerc, he needed as many points as possible.

Verstappen - who had already secured the title in Japan - was running ahead of Perez in the ඣclosing laps of the Sao Paulo GP after overtaking his teammate shortly after the Safety Car.

Red Bull had order𝓡ed Verstappen to let Pere🐟z through for sixth-place, but refused to do so.

It was petty from Verstappen, given it was only over two championship points, however, the reason behind his refusal to ass♔ist Perez soon transpired, tracing back to his crash in Q3♛ in Monaco.

Both drivers have made it clear that they have moved on from what happened, but in F1 2023, if Verstappen needs Perez’s supportꦍ, will he be willin🅠g to help? And vice versa.

Mercedes

In mos🍌t people’s opinions, including mineꦐ, Mercedes have the best driver line-up on the grid.

Seven-time world champion 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton continues to perform close to his best despite his winless 2022 campaign, while 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:George Russell confirmed he has all theꦇ credentials to be 🃏a title contender in the right machinery.

D༒ue to Mercedes’ lack of competitiveness in 2022, Hamilton and Russell were force🌳d to work collaboratively to help cure the W13’s host of issues, particularly with porpoising.

There’s no doubt the dynamic would have been different had the W13 been a title-contending c🎶ar.

Hamilton is still hungry for an eight🅘h wor🧔ld title, while Russell - at just 24 - feels ready to take his first.

It’s unlikely Mercedes will ever have a situation they faced in 2014-16 with Hamilton and Nico Rosberg, given that Russell id𒊎olises his veteran teammate. 

Howevꦫer, if there’s a title up for grabs, it’s hard not to see some drama ensuing at some point across the season.

Alpine

One team near certain of friction between their teammate pairing is Alp꧒ine.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Esteban Ocon has a knack of irritating his teammates - ask Perez or 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Fernando Alonso.

Plus, his long history with 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Pierre Gasly st𓃲retching back to their days in karting adds another reason for potential drama.

Along wiꦑth Mercedes, Alpine have one of the most evenly-matched driver pairings on the grid.

Ocon enjoyed his best season in 2022 as he out-scored Alonso - thꦛe first time he has ever beaten a teammate in the standings.

On the other hand, Gasly struggled relatively to his previous two years, partially down to an underperforming AlphaTauri car combined with a potential lack of motivation ahe෴ad of his switch to Alpine.

With bo🐲th drivers looking for supremacyღ within the team, it’s going to be fireworks.

Aston Martin

In performance terms, Alonso and168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Lance Stroll is a bit of a mis-match, but that doesn’t mean there 🅰won’t be drama🐓.

Both drivers aren’t afraid to get close with their teammate, backed up by A꧑lonso and Stroll’s incidents with their respective teammates in 2022.

Unlike Mercedes and Alpine, it’s highly unlikely they will be closely-matched on track but on the occasions they are, it could be one to wa𒉰tch given Alonso’s aggressive style combined with Stroll’s no-nonsense, slightly clumsy way of racing.
