The same goes for the rest of the guys at the back of the field. They are legendary the way they turn up and plug away at it, but drivers like Sutil are still young—they have a chance of a move to a bigger team in the future. Button, however, unfortunatly doesn't have a lot of time left.
Maybe I'm crazy and the only one who considers Button to be legendary. In terms of winning, he is NOT legendary, but as I have said already, I don't think you have to be a champion to go down as a living legend. The man has a big heart and he wears it on the bonnet of his Honda all the time.
It would be such a shame to see such a talent disappear into the mire of forgotten drivers, the nearly-but-not-quite-there club, and believe me he is talented—he just never had the cars or opportunities to show us what he is really made of.
Britain's only hope of a WDC now lie solely on the shoulders of Lewis Hamilton. Now don't get me wrong, I like Heikki Kovalainen, but it would have been nice if Button and Hamilton were fighting for the title, both in a Mclaren, two British drivers in the team I support would have been a dream. It's a shame that move didn't happen.
So, Bleacher Creatures, I pose this question to you all: Do you think one has to be a winner and champion to be seen in this light?
What do you all think of Jenson Button's will, grit, and determination? Is he a legend for that? Or is he a Formula 1 flop?
