Rinnegan Madara wins. Except true several thousand hands madara can counter everything Hashirama can throw at him. Madara already has superior quality of chakra because of awakening the rinnegan, he contains six paths chakra. The boost of six path chakra can allow Madara to keep up with sage Hashirama.

Madara can kill Hashirama with limbo, hashi can't sense it nor evade it or hit it. A limbo clone with susanoo sword can cut hashi in half or he can use the same rinnegan technique he did to stop Sasuke mid air and decapitate hashi or rip his soul out.

I'm not sure if Madara can use chkibaku tensei to seal the several thousand hands or break it by bringing down a meteor on it.
