   Did you bother reading what I was agreeing with?   
      
   "A great sportsman he [Verstappen] most certainly isn't"   
      
   Agreed.   
      
   "but neither were very many other champions. At least, not until they   
   became ex-champions."   
      
   Agreed.   
      
   Nothing in there says that there are NO good sportsmen in F1.
