Thanks Muzza - likewise!!!

I'm sure Bourdais is a thoroughly nice chap. What I was attemtping to refer to (in a quite lazy fashion), and what you also (rather more successfully) referred to was the fact that Seb often left himself open to, let's say less-than-positive, thoughts from some quarters. It's common knowledge that he's made a few enemies over the years.

You can't deny that these factors have led to a somewhat frosty reputation.

In contrast, I don't think anyone that has ever had much to do with Montagny would ever say a bad word about him - my personal experience with Franck is that he is a funny, easy-going and amiable character.

Something that does not really fit the public's perception of Bourdais.
