He served time twice - once for hacking, the second time for insider trading. As I said, the insider trading thing was really, really dumb (mainly because it was so obvious). I have zero respect for this guy.

 

Envy him? Sure, I like money.
Respect him? No way.

 

He already got banned from 6speedonline.com.

 

I did the Gumball this year and saw him (hard to miss in fact - he's HUGE)
I never spoke to him so I will not make any comments on his personality, but the way he approached the Gumball seemed a bit strange to me.
Basically he wanted to be the first at each checkpoint, no matter what it took, be it speeding through poor moroccan villages or waking up earlier than everyone to gain some time..

He also had the worst pick-up lines to try and seduce my co-driver.
I would strongly suggest to compensate the lack of physical beauty by some sense of humor and self-depreciation... but maybe I'm asking too much.
