Yeah just so you know that show twisted all kinds of things to add to the drama. More drivers speak out every season about how audio clips of them were edited to make them sound more adversarial to their team mate, etc. and they really don't feel that way. Look at the social media comments about it from fans, and everyone feels like they ignored the big stories everyone really talked about and just fixated on drama.
But a lot of teams have historically had this "we win as a team" vibe and done things like expect the #2 driver to obey team orders and give up position to let the #1 driver score more points and increase the odds of the driver's championship going to a driver from that team. I don't have further reading on this topic specifically, but if you're wanting to learn more and you're in the HN crowd, Steve Matchett's books are awesome and Adrian Newey's autobiography is also pretty good and covers a lot of the last couple of decades with a ton of cool technical detail.
