Mansell versus Piquet: The internal duels at Williams
In the 1980s, the Williams team was the scene of one of the most memorable internal rivalries in F1 history. Nigel Mansell and Nelson Piquet, two talented drivers, found themselves teammates within the British stable. Their fierce duels were the highlight of the 1986 season, when Mansell and Piquet fought for the championship until the end. Differences in driving style, personality, and nationality added an extra spice to their rivalry. Piquet ultimately won the title that year, but the rivalry between these two drivers remains etched in F1 history.
The legendary rivalry between Senna and Prost
One of the most emblematic rivalries in the history of Formula 1 was that between Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost during the 1980s and 1990s. These two champions dominated the F1 scene at the time, but their rivalry was far more than sporting. Their opposing driving styles, cultural differences and the intensity of their competition created unforgettable moments, such as their controversial collision at the Japan Grand Prix in 1989. This rivalry remains etched in the history of F1.
Hamilton vs. Rosberg: A rivalry within the same team
More recently, the rivalry between Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg has captivated Formula 1 fans. The two drivers were teammates at Mercedes and engaged in a ferocious battle for the world title over several seasons. Their rivalry reached its peak in 2016 when Rosberg won the championship, but this did not diminish the intensity of their competition on the track. Their story shows that rivalries in F1 remain an essential element of the sport, even in the modern era.
Many other rivalries are addressed in this work, including the current one between Verstappen and Hamilton which led to a rarely reached tension in F1 at the end of the 2021 season.
These rivalries between drivers have helped make Formula 1 so exciting over the years, and they will continue to be at the heart of this sport’s appeal to fans around the world.
Nicolas Anderbegani also tackles rivalries in rally or Nascar in this nearly 200-page book that we are giving away.
