[@Ab-en6lg]

I think he was referring to the reputation that Michael developed over his career as being a terrible sportsman when things don't go his way. His legacy is his stats, not his driving unfortunately. When you compare him to Senna or Prost or Fangio, his legacy remains one of several incidents that has left a bad taste in the mouth of people who watched the sport when he was driving. He was a phenomenal talent and showed it in 2006 IMO, but he never had a season where he won while having inferior machinery. In that sense Ron was correct, that he could be remembered for all the bad reasons even though he was a phenomenal talent.
