Team mates meeting again
#1
Posted 28 February 2013 - 12:52
So there's a question that came to my mind...
When was the last time that two team mates were driving against each other later again?
It would be interesting if it would be in another team. Any ideas?
And would the losing driver from first time turn the game around later...?
Btw. I don't search for answers like Kobayashi and Perez were driving in 2011, then Pedro de la Rosa came to Sauber for a one-off...and then Kobayashi and Perez were meeting again

Also Sutil and PDR are not the only pair of team-mate that are reunited in F1 this year, there's another 2! Hamilton and Rosberg; and van der Garde and Pic.;) Former team-mates in karting and GP2 respectively.

Berger and Alesi is the one that comes to mind albeit a little different.. both buggered off to a different team at the same time!

If we look across different series, then also Senna and Chandhok. 2008 iSport in GP2, 2010 F1 HRT.

Nelson Piquet Sr and Riccardo Patrese - teammates at Brabham and later on, Williams.
Piquet was never at williams with Patrese.
Ignore that, they were for one race.

I guess you could also add Fisichella and Alonso from 05/06 Renault to Ferrari '10.de la Rosa/Alonso from McLaren '07 to Ferrari '13, and Gene/Badoer from Minardi in '99 to Ferrari from '05 albeit in testing roles.

Slightly different note; Schumacher and Barrichello where teammates six seasons. Any pair who where teammates longer?
*Oke just checked - Coulthard and Hakkinnen as well.
The closest I can think of from the top of my head are:
Alesi & Berger: 93, 94, 95 at Ferrari, 96, 97 at Benneton.
Webber & Vettel: 09, 10, 11, 12, and (presumably) 13 at Red Bull.

Olivier Panis and Jarno Trulli - Ligier/Prost in 1997-99 and Toyota for one race in 2004.
It was Prost in 97 as well ;)

Yup, was it the 45? I seem to remember the 96 car being 43. Do you know why they always skipped even numbers, and why it was called JS?

Yup, JS stands for Jo Schlesser. Can't remember why they skipped even numbers although I think their microcars might have all had even numbers. Maybe it was odd numbers for racing cars and even numbers for road cars?Yup, was it the 45? I seem to remember the 96 car being 43. Do you know why they always skipped even numbers, and why it was called JS?

Martin Brundle & Mark Blundell: Brabham in 1991, Ligier in 1993
Mika Salo & Pedro Diniz: Arrows in 1998, Sauber in 2000
Can't think of a more recent exemple.
Brundle and Blundell also teamed up for the Daytona 24 in 2011 in a Daytona Prototype, interestingly enough.
Edit: I see someone else already caught this.

(though not as teammates, but this meeting was one of the most unlikely, and was made possible due to long chain of events/circumstances for both drivers over the years.)

de la Rosa/Alonso from McLaren '07 to Ferrari '13, and Gene/Badoer from Minardi in '99 to Ferrari from '05 albeit in testing roles.
In testing roles, also Wurz and Nakajima at Williams in F1 and later raced together in Le Mans i think.

I always thought it was cool how Nelson Piquet and Roberto Moreno ended up F1 teammates after being Karting teammates as kids.
Like Lewis and Nico.

Yep this team battle is one to watch this season, even if you are not a fan of the team!Like Lewis and Nico.

Which is interesting since they fought very, very hard at Volkswagen and it looked to me they ended very angry at each other.

I think Heidfeld and Webber where both part of the Mercedes-Benz CLR team in the 1999 Le Mans, and became teammates again at Williams in 2005.
Nope. They both ran the Merc - not the same. So, teammates, but not in the same way really. If you get what I mean?
