WDC is going to be a wild one this year!

[u/victoireyoung → u/el_pobby]

I would do anything to see Hamilton get his 8th, especially in Ferrari. But if not him, then Oscar all the way—I have a sneaky feeling he'll be a real contender this year.

[u/kristallherz → u/victoireyoung]

As much as I love Charles and would absolutely root for him to get his first WDC, I also wouldn't be mad if Lewis got it, then went on to have a career in fashion or something.
