1. Lewis moves to Mercedes
No one saw this coming, Not many expected it to happen. But in so many ways this move has made Lewis a Legend. 4 championships and so many poles and wins later you could say this move made Lewis' career. Reasons to this day are still not entirely clear as to why Lewis did this. Was it because, as he said, he wanted a new challenge and looked at it as the opportunity to emulate Michael Schumacher? or was it the alternate theory that Lewis was tired of Button, his teammate getting the equal treatment and he just wanted to be in the environment where the team was all to himself and he could be "The Guy" in the team. Even from Mclaren's perspective letting someone like Lewis go was not the most ideal thing considering he was and still is one of the brightest stars on the grid. Many believed that maybe not that much effort was put in to keep Lewis at Mclaren which ultimately led to him leaving
