A lot of people in the world deserve to be arrogant. The question is, do they have to be? Is there a need for? Does it add value to what he/she is doing?
It's not about we'll ever be him, but we actually contribute to his fame by discussing him, turning on the TV, or read news on him. It is the same way you criticize a car when you test drive it. Can you build a car yourself? Without audience, he's just a racer with no value.
There are a few top drivers in the Formula one line up, each deserve to be arrogant, but for me, I would rather support the one that is not.
(I do have to say I enjoy Clarkson being so arrogant on TV, it gives value to Topgear)
