Under/Over performing
I was just reading a thread commenting on team mates. We are only 3 races in, so little can be valuated accurately, but some patterns are emerging. Sometimes though drivers are ether flattered by poor performing team mates, or looking second hand because of team mates star performances.
Its not always a case of leading driver being a star, the loser being below par. My assessment to date : Renault : Good example here. Alonso leads Fisi any way you measure it. One could jump in and say Alonso is doing well, Fisi poorly. IMO, Fisi is meeting expectations, while Alonso is over-performing. Toyota : Again Ralf looks bad here, but personally I think he is doing well, its just that Trulli is doing exceptional. Williams : Nothing to add here. Neither over or under-performing so far, but are meeting expectations. Redbull : I'm giving both drivers the thumbs up here. The car is obviously improved, but to me so have both drivers. Ferrari : Rubins on par at the moment, with Michael under-performing from the standard we have come to expect. BAR : Cant say I have been impressed either way here. Sort of the opposite to RBR. Car went backwards, and the drivers are a little off also. Sauber : Villenueve is under-perfoming, Massa over-performing. Unfortunate for JV, but the great drives from Massa are highlighting further the problems JV is having. Hard to pin the blame on the car when your team mate is making lemonade from lemons. McLaren : Both drivers hiting the average button for me. Neither is showing their true potential, but neither is falling off either. Need to see more. Jordan and Minardi : Sorry, dont even know who is driving for them these days. |
