Let me park thinking with my head for a moment.
Lewis's career is like that of many of the elite in sports. They manifest greatness and fate or the world conspires to make it happen. It doesn't always..... but there's something about this Ferrari move.
There aren't many drivers in F1 history who have had the profile Hamilton has. Especially among the elite of society like he has. Not that it counts for anything regarding winning a title I'm just talking about the story arch.
Ferrari's drought, Hamilton missing out on beating Schumacher's record the way he did, the gamble again in his career of leaving his team...... if the world conspires and he wins that 8th title at Ferrari.
What a story. What a career regardless of the above. But if he does it..... I wouldn't bet against it.
If he does win the drivers title at Ferrari, he'll have won the title with 3 different teams. Something only Fangio did, though I'm sure someone will correct me if that is not the case.
