I give Button a lot more credit than most people do. But maybe his smooth style and lack of flash on track make him seem less of a "racer"? The reality is that any non-pay F1 driver is a great driver. I think the difference in pure speed between them is less than 1%
What makes some drivers better than others is the ability to cope with new regs, adjust your driving style to suit the car you're driving, and help develop and set up the car.
Also, I always thought the best way to judge these guys was how they drive in the rain.
