Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes have been utterly dominant for the last six seasons, winning every a constructors' and drivers' double in every season since 2014. But would Hamilton have won the World Championship at Ferrari?
Hamilton wrapped up his sixth Drivers' Championship with P2 at the United States Grand Prix with the only blemish on his near-flawless record in recent years, the 2016 season, which was won by his then-teammate, Nico Rosberg.
During Hamilton's success, Ferrari have been unable to mount a maintained title challenge. However, one man who thinks Hamilton would've brought success to Ferrari is their former CEO, Luca di Montezemolo.
"Hamilton is a great driver and the victory he has won is a great appreciation for Niki Lauda," Luca di Montezemolo told Radio Rai.
"My friend did everything to get him in there and I understand why. Lewis has a great attitude, adapts to every circuit and is extremely fast. The six titles also speak for themselves of course.

"I think Lewis would also have been the champion in 2018 if he had driven for Ferrari. That, however, is my opinion."
