F1 2025 Qualifying head-to-head: Lewis Hamilton’s Ferrari misery revealed

Lewis Hamilton has endured a tough time since joining Ferrari in comparison to his team-mate Charles Leclerc.

Not only is the seven-time world champion yet to have scored a grand prix podium in his first 18 races as a Ferrari driver while Leclerc has achieved five in the same car, but the Brit's qualifying performances are leaving a lot to be desired too, giving him too much to do in the races.

He's not the only driver to be struggling in qualifying compared to his team-mate, however. Two racers on the grid are yet to beat their team-mates in a grand prix qualifying session in 2025.

Team-mate head-to-heads are a great way to measure driver performance, with both drivers having the same car and therefore a more accurate representation of their performances can be measured.

Here are all of the qualifying head-to-heads from the 2025 season so far. Note that the scoring is only based on present team-mates, so it does not count Jack Doohan's first half of the season at Alpine before being replaced by Franco Colapinto, nor the team swap of Yuki Tsunoda and Liam Lawson after two races.
