PanozDP01 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Which F1 teammates will clash the most in 2024 ?

I recon that we are going to see some fireworks between teammates in 2024. One reason is that the technical regs haven't changed very much year to year. So there will be even less variance between cars and teammates this year compared to last year.



Russell and Hamilton were tied in qualifying in 2023 and they came to blows on the track in 2023 already. Neither have any reason to go along to get along in 2024 with Hamilton leaving. If the Mercedes is fast, there will be fireworks.



Then there's Ocon and Gasly. Towards the end of 2023, Gasly started to lose his patients with some of the strategy calls the team was making in relation to Ocon. He also said that he did all the heavy lifting to make the relationship work. Which makes sense considering its Ocon's reputation. It is also a contract year for Ocon. Ocon will be racing Gasly harder than anyone else. And he won't give an inch. And unlike last year, Gasly wont be giving any either.



Then there is Norris and Piastri. They are both #1 drivers. Not much else has to be said. Piastri has a whole season of F1 under his belt now. These 2 drivers will be closer than ever. And if McLaren carries on like they ended 2023, they will have polls, podiums and race wins to fight for. 2 of the most level headed personalities in the field. But that won't save them.

And last, Sainz and Leclerc. Who do get along reasonably well. But if the car is fast, Sainz will have no reason to budge on anything. Full on multi 21 is to be expected.

I am going Russell/Hamilton as the biggest clash. Followed by the Alpine drivers. Then the McLaren drivers, then Ferrari.

Which teammates do you think will clash in 2024 ?
