I recently realized that I mostly follow Hadvar because if you follow him, you go straight, while with Ralof, you have to swerve to the right.

Also, another point for Hadvar because he actually tries to reason with Stormcloaks you encounter first. However, with Ralof, you arguably get through the beginning faster if you don't bother to backtrack to where you enter with Hadvar.
