Pole position means the fastest time in qualifying. That is not the same as a start from P1 – grid penalties move a driver down the grid. Up to the 2000s the two numbers coincide.

Same car, same races. In the race only those where both reached the finish count – a retirement says nothing about the head-to-head.

Green: Alessandro Pesenti-Rossi came out ahead in that duel. Quali gap: the median difference in the last session both set a time in, as a share of the lap – minus is faster. At least three sessions; a dash where there were fewer.
