The F1 2025 qualifying battles will no doubt throw up plenty of intrigue as the season unfolds as we find out who gains the upper hand at each team.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Of course, the points are handed out in races and now Sprints, but ultimate one-lap pace remains a vital indicator of performance \u2013 and every driver is extremely competitive in both qualifying and race trim.<\/p>\n

F1 2025: Head-to-head qualifying statistics between team-mates
\nF1 2025 head-to-head qualifying record: McLaren<\/p>\n

Lando Norris 6-8 Oscar Piastri
Sprint qualifying: Lando Norris 0-3 Oscar Piastri<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lando Norris has held a comfortable margin in the qualifying head-to-head against Oscar Piastri in the past two seasons, with this being their third together as McLaren team-mates.<\/p>\n

Piastri has made it clear qualifying is a target of his to improve this season, having been on the wrong end of a 21-3 deficit in 2024 \u2013 though he was rarely far away from Norris on the grid. In 2025, the Aussie driver has made great headway.<\/p>\n

F1 2025 head-to-head qualifying record: Ferrari<\/p>\n

Lewis Hamilton 4-10 Charles Leclerc
Sprint qualifying: Lewis Hamilton 1-2 Charles Leclerc<\/strong><\/p>\n

The sport\u2019s all-time leading polesitter is going up against the person who many believe to be Formula 1\u2019s fastest qualifier over one lap at Ferrari this season.<\/p>\n

Lewis Hamilton endured a difficult head-to-head against George Russell at Mercedes in 2024, himself an excellent qualifier, so watch this space at the Scuderia.<\/p>\n

F1 2025 head-to-head qualifying record: Red Bull<\/p>\n

Max Verstappen 2-0 Liam Lawson
Sprint qualifying: Max Verstappen 1-0 Liam Lawson<\/strong><\/p>\n

Max Verstappen 12-0 Yuki Tsunoda
Sprint qualifying: Max Verstappen 2-0 Yuki Tsunoda<\/strong><\/p>\n

To out-qualify Max Verstappen has been a rare feat in recent seasons, with Sergio Perez on the wrong side of a 20-2 deficit in 2023, and an even more one-sided 23-1 defeat in 2024.<\/p>\n

Verstappen continued that dominance in his two F1 2025 weekends with Liam Lawson as his team-mate and will be looking to do the same to Yuki Tsunoda, his newest Red Bull team-mate.<\/p>\n

F1 2025 head-to-head qualifying record: Mercedes<\/p>\n

Kimi Antonelli 1-13 George Russell
Sprint qualifying: Andrea Kimi Antonelli 1-2 George Russell<\/strong><\/p>\n

Having beaten a seven-time World Champion 19-5 in qualifying in 2024, George Russell will have every reason to go into this season against a rookie team-mate in Andrea Kimi Antonelli as the favourite in this metric.<\/p>\n

The teenager has significant pedigree in every championship in which he has raced so far, however, so there is every chance he will grow into the season as it progresses.<\/p>\n

F1 2025 head-to-head qualifying record: Aston Martin<\/p>\n

Fernando Alonso 14-0 Lance Stroll
Sprint qualifying: Fernando Alonso 2-1 Lance Stroll<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fernando Alonso has held the upper hand at Aston Martin in both qualifying and race trim since his arrival at Silverstone, winning out 19-5 against Lance Stroll last year.<\/p>\n

Alonso\u2019s one-lap speed shows no sign of waning as Formula 1\u2019s most experienced driver looks for a 23rd pole position, with his most recent coming at Hockenheim in 2012.<\/p>\n

F1 2025 head-to-head qualifying record: Alpine<\/p>\n

Jack Doohan 1-5 Pierre Gasly
Sprint qualifying: Jack Doohan 1-1 Pierre Gasly<\/strong><\/p>\n

Franco Colapinto 2-6 Pierre Gasly
Sprint qualifying: Franco Colapinto 0-1 Pierre Gasly<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon had the closest qualifying battle on the grid last season, with a 12-11 result in Ocon\u2019s favour before he departed one race early at the end of 2024.<\/p>\n

This move opened the door for Jack Doohan to settle in a race early before his full-time drive in 2025, with Gasly getting the first qualifying notch on the board against his rookie team-mate in Abu Dhabi last year.<\/p>\n

Franco Colapinto replaced Doohan ahead of the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix.<\/p>\n

F1 2025 head-to-head qualifying record: Haas<\/p>\n

Oliver Bearman 6-8 Esteban Ocon
Sprint qualifying: Oliver Bearman 0-3 Esteban Ocon<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s an all-new partnership at Haas that sees Ollie Bearman take on Esteban Ocon, with the Frenchman taking in his new surroundings after a five-season stint at Team Enstone.<\/p>\n

Bearman graduates to Formula 1 from his F2 stint alongside Kimi Antonelli at Prema, and remains a Ferrari junior through his stint at Haas.<\/p>\n

F1 2025 head-to-head qualifying record: Racing Bulls<\/p>\n

Isack Hadjar 1-1 Yuki Tsunoda
Sprint qualifying: Isack Hadjar 0-1 Yuki Tsunoda<\/strong><\/p>\n

Isack Hadjar 9-3 Liam Lawson
Sprint qualifying: Isack Hadjar 2-0 Liam Lawson<\/strong><\/p>\n

Three races into the new season and Isack Hadjar has a new team-mate in Liam Lawson, who has replaced the Red Bull-bound Yuki Tsunoda at Red Bull\u2019s sister team.<\/p>\n

Both Hadjar, who has stepped up from Formula 2, and Lawson, who suffered an early season demotion from Red Bull, have something to prove.<\/p>\n

Hadjar partnered Yuki Tsunoda in his first two races, tied in Grand Prix qualifying although Tsunoda pulled in front in Sprint qualifying.<\/p>\n

F1 2025 head-to-head qualifying record: Williams<\/p>\n

Alex Albon 8-6 Carlos Sainz
Sprint qualifying: Alex Albon 2-1 Carlos Sainz<\/strong><\/p>\n

Alex Albon has been dominant in his qualifying head-to-heads at Williams to date, but in Carlos Sainz finds a stern test of his capabilities.<\/p>\n

Both formerly among the Red Bull stable and with strong reputations on the Formula 1 grid, they will both be looking for internal bragging rights within Williams this season.<\/p>\n

F1 2025 head-to-head qualifying record: Sauber<\/p>\n

Gabriel Bortoleto 8-6 Nico Hulkenberg
Sprint qualifying: Gabriel Bortoleto 2-1 Nico Hulkenberg<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nico Hulkenberg became something of a qualifying specialist in his stint at Haas, and he goes up against a back-to-back F3 and F2 champion in Gabriel Bortoleto at Sauber this season.<\/p>\n

The two are both contracted to take the team through its transition to being an Audi factory outfit in 2026, with a blend of youth and experience.<\/p>\n
