One major reason why Lewis Hamilton has elected to depart Mercedes for Ferrari is that the pull of winning his eighth World Championship, breaking the record he holds with Michael Schumacher is just too great.
If he were to go to Maranello and claim that title, Hamilton would forever be the man to return the crowns to the Tifosi, who have not tasted success since Kimi Raikkonen's 2007 title - defeating Hamilton - or the 2008 Constructors'.
He would also become just the second driver after great friend and Mercedes mentor Niki Lauda to win titles for both McLaren and Ferrari and move into second behind Juan Manuel Fangio for titles won with different teams at three.
Fangio claimed his five titles for Alfa Romeo, Mercedes, Ferrari and Maserati between 1951 and 1957.
So, RacingNews365 asked you the fans to deliver your verdict on whether Hamilton could add title #8 to his CV at Maranello.
The results as shown produced a clear and decisive winner...
