Nobody is denying either his success, which is remarkable, nor his dedication and ability in motivating a team and getting the best from them.

This makes him the most successful F1 driver ever, and possibly one of the most able (in terms of skill behind the wheel).

Greatness however is more than that, it is the manner in which his contribution is delivered, the manner in which a person goes about his aims and achievements.

Success and greatness are not interchangeable...there are great drivers who did not have a fraction of MS's numerical success, but their greatness was achieved because of the way they went about their lives.

There are sides to MS which reveal a humanity and concern for others which is not able to be seen in the race day snippets...but are they the true man or people skills deployed to bring people on side and deliver the most from them to his benefit?
