The Resume

    (July 3, 1987- )
    Born in Heppenheim, Germany
    Won four consecutive Formula One World Championships (2010-13)

Why he might be annoying:

    When he was a twelve year old kart driver, one of his sponsors was a vodka brand.
    He was nicknamed 'Baby Schumi' for his youth and nationality.
    He had an often contentious relationship with Red Bull teammate Mark Webber that completely broke down after he ignored team orders to not pass Webber at the 2013 Malaysian Grand Prix.
    He won no races in 2014, the first defending champion to do so since Jacques Villeneuve in 1998.
    He has used over 70 different helmet designs in his Formula One career, admitting 'I have a quirk.'
    He said, 'It's important to have a close relationship with a car. Like a ship, a car should be named after a girl as it's sexy.'

Why he might not be annoying:

    He said growing up his heroes were 'the three Michaels': Schumacher, Jordan and Jackson.
    At 23, he became the youngest Formula One World Champion.
    He was the second driver, after Michael Schumacher, with ten or more wins in a season (2011).
    He was twice named European Sportsperson of the Year (2012-13).
    He redubbed Jeff Gordon's part for the German release of Pixar's 'Cars 2.'
