I'm getting more & more sure  this will happen #Papasconspiracy 

This will only happen imo if Seb fails to win a WDC by 2020, if momentum swings to Ferrari and Seb then Leeis will never drive in a red car even if he wants too, why would a team change if they are winning

Maybe Lotus, though I have read that Ferrari had made Lewis an offer when he resigned this year, (read in F1i) I have also read they also made him an offer in 2016 (cant bloody find it now)

I know most of my Ferrari friends are, how shall I put this?...….  not keen lol.

I reckon they’d love to have him if he was winning titles for him, might take a while to while to warm to him if it were to come about

And the understatement of the year goes to.......

Think I said this before, but perhaps better minds will have the answer - Paps and other Lewis fans want to see Lewis at SF, to win at 3 different teams - however - even though Lewis has won at 2 different teams, at present, he has never won without a Merc Engine

So, if this mystical feat is to be achieved, much like Alonso's quest for the triple crown,

Who won before in 3 teams? (I'm guessing, Fangio)

But didn't he also have different engines? Just asking, but if the answer is what I think it is - sorry Lewis fans - it's not the same achievement

Asked Gag's Fangio won five drivers titles for Four different teams. (four different engines)

1951 - Alfa Romeo
1954 - Maserati / Mercedes
1955 - Mercedes
1956 - Ferrari
1957 - Maserati

Not sure that will ever be beaten.

Haha - Yeah Paps - kinda knew that, 5 titles, - 4 engines - but as some can be a bit "sensitive" at times, was hoping a Lewis fan would say it - thanks for obliging, haha

Never to be repeated

Not sure winning with different teams or engines is a particularly relative stat unless you of course are a stat freak of which there are far too many in the world. Being in the dominant car of the day is what wins you Championships. I was not as close of a fan as I am now but as Hamilton fan I think his WDC in 2008 was perhaps his best win. IF, IF he wins this year I would probably rank it as second.

I am going against the grain here (as usual) I do not see Vettel in a Mercedes car. Reasons why: I think Mercedes will want to Hamilton for many more years and throw all kinds of money at him or certainly until he stops being a potential champion. I dont think he and Vettel will ever drive in the same team together unless they both end up at McLaren!!!! Then I look at the drivers Mercedes have coming through their young drivers program, throw in Ocon ( I cannot believe they will totally free him up next season I see a 'loan' arrangement). Then I look at the possibility they may well go after Verstappen although personally I think he is destined for Ferrari.

I do think there is a small chance Hamilton will drive for Ferrari one day I mean like it or not it is considered the pinnacle of teams but equally you have to wonder what Leclerc is going to be, if Verstappen ends up there and even the possibility Danny Ricciardo could also be a Ferrari target of the future (and maybe Mercedes too).

I thought it was a nice comment from Wolff but no more than that.
