Why he might be annoying:

    It is a common mistake to believe that he was born in New Zealand.
    When he was a young racer, he had to have a pillow tied to his seat so he could see over the steering wheel.
    He was granted permission to begin driving at age 13, when New Zealanders cannot obtain a license until age 15.
    He is nicknamed 'Kiwi.'
    He had to rely on a group of investors to pay for his attempts to race in the United States.
    His guilty pleasure is buying watches and Lemon Drop shots.
    He describes his pre-race ritual as a 'trip quick to the can.'

Why he might not be annoying:

    He won his first IRL race, and set the record for being the youngest winner in IRL history.
    He won the championship in his inaugural IRL season.
    His parents were both racecar drivers.
    He lost the 2007 championship when he ran out of fuel on the last lap of the final race.
    He became the first driver since Juan Pablo Montoya to win the Indy 500 pole and race in the same year.
    He joined Ganassi Racing after his original team closed up during the season.
    He has a very attractive wife.
