Piquet

Ohmygoodness ya'll we've hit 40!!

This is one I feel like I shouldve gotten earlier but here he finally is

Nelson

Now I have put him with Brabham because of his two Championships with them (and how he basically dragged them out of the dirt)
I know some people might remember him more with Williams


And I gave him the dodo because its got the colours of the Brabham team (i cant tell if its black or navy blue so the dodo is both blue and black as well as white)
Also while dodo's dont come from Australia, some extinct flightless birds do so there we go (Brabham is originally an Australian Team)

Please dont ask me why his nickname is the Indian when he is Brazilian. I just find and write the nicknames I dont come up with them

*cries coz I just realised he's a brother of my other f1 derg Webber and Im making him nearly the same. Just a different sec (and ofc dressed different)*

Thank you Skydust for the breedchange ;v;

I cant tell if the Brabham suit is black or navy so for my sake I went with black

Nelson is a riot- he's like a more chaotic Kimi and I dont know if thats a good thing

Since his retirement, Piquet, a three-time World Champion, has been ranked among the greatest Formula One drivers in various motorsport polls. Piquet had a brief career in tennis before losing interest in the sport and subsequently took up karting and hid his identity to prevent his father discovering his hobby. He became the Brazilian national karting champion in 1971–72 and won the Formula Vee championship in 1976. With advice from Emerson Fittipaldi, Piquet went to Europe to further success by taking the record number of wins in Formula Three in 1978, beating Jackie Stewart's all-time record. In the same year, he made his Formula One debut with the Ensign team and drove for McLaren and Brabham. In 1979, Piquet moved to the Brabham team and finished the runner-up in 1980 before winning the championship in 1981. Piquet's poor performances in 1982 saw a resurgence for 1983 and his second world championship. For 1984–85, Piquet had once again lost chances to win the championship but managed to score three wins during that period. He moved to the Williams team in 1986 and was a title contender until the final round in Australia.

Piquet took his third and final championship in 1987 during a heated battle with teammate Nigel Mansell which left the pair's relationship sour. Piquet subsequently moved to Lotus for 1988–89 where he experienced his third drop in form. He eventually went to the Benetton team for 1990–91 where he managed to win three races before retiring.

After retiring from Formula One, Piquet tried his hand at the Indianapolis 500 for two years. He also had a go at sports car racing at various points during and after his Formula One career. Piquet is currently retired and runs several businesses in Brazil. He also manages his sons Nelson Piquet Jr. and Pedro Piquet, who are also professional racing drivers.
