Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Chequered at 5.0 against AeroF1's 4.0. Chequered also leads on ratings volume (10 vs 1) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 10 days). AeroF1's advantage is monetization model (freemium vs subscription) and iOS requirement (18.6 vs 26.2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. AeroF1 sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Chequered sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Chequered holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Chequered has 10 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
