The two World champions drove against each other at McLaren in 1974. Fittipaldi was World champion, Hulme not. Why? Was Hulme to old?

Short answer: Fittipaldi was younger and hungrier. Standard situation of young hotshoe and older experienced steadier driver. It's been repeated again and again because it's what team managers want.
