Still don't think he's automatically the GOAT (because most of his wins
were in obviously dominant cars in HIS years)...
...but credit where it's due:
He got absolutely everything that could be got out of that Mercedes this year.

The fact that he gave Perez such a close run for second WDC in what
was a vastly superior car shows that it is both driver and car that
matters.
Has to be Max surely?
He is not always a great sportsman

A great sportsman he most certainly isn't, but neither were very many
other champions. At least, not until they became ex-champions.

He is not always a great sportsman but he is a great driver at the peak of his powers.
Alonso and Albon have also had good seasons.

Exactly.
I can see quite a few clearly 'good sportsmen' in the F1 drivers right now.
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.
