The qualifying for the Spanish Grand Prix was mainly a battle between Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen, but the qualifying duels between teammates are also beginning to take serious shape. While some drivers are running ahead of their teammate, others are leveling the score.

Verstappen is making more distance from Sergio Perez and the same goes for Leclerc at Carlos Sainz. At Mercedes, the score is just tied by George Russell, who qualified himself ahead of Lewis Hamilton.

Meanwhile, Daniel Ricciardo scores for the first time at the expense of Lando Norris, who did not make it to Q3 because his lap time was removed. Valtteri Bottas, along with Leclerc, is the only one left on a perfect score.
