He just became the only man in the history of Nascar to win 4 titles in a row. I know a lot of people here don't care for it, but I do watch occasionally. The guy came from very humble beginnings and really works hard at what he does.
EDIT: Damn, I just saw them give him a $6.5 million check for winning the championship. I wonder how much of that he keeps to himself. Combine that with whatever bonus he receives from his sponsors and all the money he's won during the season. I see why all these F1 and Indy falloffs want to come to Nascar.
