Sorry. The photographic evidence says otherwise:

To date, it is her highest finish in Sprint Cup - and only her second appearance in the top ten.

Most of what this article is about a matter of opinion and marketing of an individual.
Some athletes happen to be at a certain place in their careers at the perfect time to catch the attention of the media types. Example: Danica Patrick. Another thing in her favor is that she is good looking. It has nothing to do with her racing ability. She is good enough to be in the hunt, so to speak, but certainly not in the upper echelons of racing. The media cheers her on, always wishing she would actually win sometime.
Sort of reminds me of a certain politician who ran for POTUS and won! Hdd not one thing to recommend him for that office.

Fielder snagging a nacho was one of my favorite memories.

She finishes in the money most of the time. She probably needs a better car

“Has anybody ever actually claimed Danica Patrick is good?”
At the professional level, pretty much all race drivers are good. Only a handful are great.

Donovan McNabb, and get out of my head! I was going to pick him for this list too.

Youd add Tiger Woods to the list of most overrated athletes? In an off year, last year, he still won six events. Zero wins in 12 starts in 2010.
Zero wins in 9 starts in 2011.
Three wins and 17 cuts in 19 starts in 2012.
Five wins and 16 cuts in 16 starts in 2013.
The surgery and recovery has taken its toll.

Well as Lindsey Vonn says...
He’s not as good as he once was, but he’s as good once as he ever was.

Why is Deon Sanders overrated?
He was arguably the best CB to ever play the game. The guy shut down an entire side of the field. He was also a very good return man.
I admit I couldn’t stand his showboating antics, but I do respect his football abilities,
