Minato isn't leagues above anybody in physical speed.. for example he was only BARELY faster than Obito and he was even hoping he was faster than Obito in order for his FTG Rasengan combo to work. Sasuke IS faster than Obito and Itachi IS faster than Sasuke. So the differences in speed here are only barely there. Minato's FTG is the reason for his renown. FTG or not, he is still the fastest. And I'm sure he didn't became known as fastest ONLY for his FTG, he had to be physically fast and also very good with body flicker. FTG requires fast reflexes which Minato had. For example, not everyone could escape raikages blitz attack even with kunais all over the place because not everyone could react that fast to teleport ... It's fact that he is the fastest ninja of all time, manga proves that.
