Matias Júnior
O melhor do Brasil na F1
Matthew Bell
Excellent driver but not at the level of Prost and Senna, was never quite the same again after the crash at Imola and couldn't handle Mansell on many occasions.
Alexandre Beinotti
The best!
Marc Antoni
Nelson was a fantastic driver! 3 times world championin! Im very happy because i saw him win the brazilian Grand Prix in Rio, the crowd Gone crazy! Amazing years!Amazing driver!! He is one of the legend of F1.
Anderson Maciel
Please, ask a brazilian to tell you how you should speak Ayrton Senna. Aaargh!
Flávio

Grande Nelson!!!!! Um dos melhores pilotos que o Brasil e a Formula 1 já teve, ele é o cara.
Diego Ambrósio
Thanks for being Brazilian, Mr, Piquet.
The country still needs it.
jorge andré
Com todo respeito aos demais pilotos, mas Nelson é o melhor piloto em todos os quesitos.
TheGreatLoco
Piquet is seriously underrated. Victimized Reutemann, Prost, Senna and Mansell in his way to his 3-times drivers championships.
The first two in slower cars than his opponents and the last title against the team that wanted an British champion.
Without Williams favouring Mansell in ‘86, Piquet would have been 4-times champion.
Darth Matt
Nelson is a master and a funny guy. He lived it up
Medeiros Júnior
Grande Nelsão! Saudades dessa época!
Rafael Santos Ferreira
He is the brazilian who has the most beautiful history in F-1
Rodrigo Machado
Piquet pilotava com raça, além de toda técnica que tinha pra afinar seus carros. Para mim ele é um dos dois maiores Brasileiros e sim, um dos dez do mundo.
Alexsandro de souza
Foi o maior (no geral) piloto da historia da F1, e um dos melhores (no cockpit) de todos os tempos.
Era de ouro do Brasil.

In 1983 after the Netherlands race where he was thrown off the track in a Prost mistake, Piquet was asked about rumors that he was going to Ferrari in 1984. The answer:
"It would be nice to go to Ferrari and become a three-time champion there ..."
The reporter: - But you are a champion only once!
Piquet: "- But I will be a double champion this year."
The interview was for a Brazilian reporter. The European press would laugh if they knew, because at the time of the championship there were 3 races to go and Piquet was only 4th in the championship. And in the end, he really became a two-time champion.
Many years later asked why he did not agree to go to Ferrari, he replied:
"If I go to drive for Ferrari, I would just be a Ferrari driver. At Brabham, I was Nelson Piquet."

Nelson Piquet is one of the best F1 drivers of all times. Pure genius developing the car. Hands down.
Gabriel Costa
The best brazilian of the story!!!!!
Rogerio Coelho
Nelson Piquet was a fantastic driver!!!!
Another day, Another video to watch

No. 9 is just "it's not over till it over" lesson
Paulo Fernandes
Ah, Nelsão era pica mesmo! Foda-se o resto!!!! Piloto sem frescura. Era de ouro da F1. Pilotando carro com mais 1000 cv, segura peão!!!!

当時F1はセミオートマでもなくレース毎に数千回シフトチェンジを行う真にドライバーの腕がものいう時代、やはり各レースの重みが違うし官能的なエキゾースト音に加えてピケのみならず生前の「セナ」がJPSを駆るという何ともたまらない動画です\(^o^)/
RSV'1980 Brasil
MELHOR PILOTO DE TODOS OS TEMPOS! NELSON PIQUET DO BRASIL!
bartalinigibb
The 3 time world Champion. My eternal idol. Go Nelson.
VDX Casting e Produção
Probably one of the three greatest drivers of all time, and certainly the most underrated. The only driver twice champion without driving in the best team, author of the biggest overtaking in the history of F-1 and more, he developed technologies that are still used today, such as the tire blanket .. Simply great! Simply legendary!!!

Piquet facts:
Started his career with no support, helping Reutmann. Won his first title against the argentinian 2 years later.
Won 2 titles with the second best car of the grid.
Used to remove the engine of his transporting vehicle to use it in his racing car, only to reasemble it after each race and move on.
While traveling at the beginning of his career, barely took showers.
Invented the tire heating systems.
Helped invent the suspended nose.
Helped develop the active suspension.
Was a great tennis player, even playing professionaly.
Had his driver´s license suspended in his hometown for speeding. He had to undergo basic lessons as a penalty.
Hated street circuits.
After being asked by a reporter, about who he would honnor his title to, he said he would honnor it to himself, since he made all the effort to win it.
After being asked alongside Mansell about who was the best, him or Senna, he says:
" I´m alive"
Piquet, we love you!
dieeser
"Piquet, who was the best, you or Senna?"
" I´m alive"
Daniel Bernardo
O maior piloto de todos os tempos, e muito injustiçado pela crítica. Estudem quem foi Nelson Piquet na F-1 e vejam sua grandeza.
HonRitchie
Other fabulous drives not shown.
Monza 86 and 87
Hockenheim 86
Canada 82
Brands Hatch 83
He let Patresse win in SA 83
Had some lucky wins yet lost many more while leading.
Tamburello was a accident he didn’t need.

5:19 both fuelled to the endo of the race? There was no refuelling in 1990.

Immenso Nelson! Grazie di tutto ❤️

That powerslide around the outside is just insane! I love that move!
Mario Echigo Rodríguez
Senna, Piquet, Prost, Mansell.... the true era of F1
Pavel Tikhonov
Why does this narrator lady keep saying "Eh-yer-ton" Senna?
Bibarel.memynos
Now I am waiting Top 10 moments of Sebastian Vettel brilliance (please)
Marcelo Genova
Piquet is simply the best! But the Top 2 for me is the punch he gave in Eliseo Salazar.
Domingos Silva
Não tem aqui nenhum comentário em relação á época de 1983, um marco na história da F1, primeiro carro turbo a vencer o Mundial e o carro mais bonito de sempre Brabaham BT 52!!!
Pedro Bittencourt Barboza
underrated.
Senna458
Definitely one of the very best that I've seen in my lifetime.

Nelson Piquet
Luis Eduardo Dalpra
Nelson Piquet is better than Senna, ever
Aquiesce24
11:35: Mistral hairpin? At Adelaide? No such thing.
Highland_Biker
16:07 shows what you had to do to overtake Senna at this time- nearly go off the track
Jack Smith
But what about Germany 1981 where he won with broken front wing and bent steering after a T1 L1 clash? 🧐
Joseph Ndeng
KEKE rosberg brilliance
Ash Miller
Truly appreciated the generation-spanning prowess of Piquet, exemplified here when you realise he'd been up against the totally different eras of the likes of Gilles Villeneuve, as well as Jean Alesi!
Emes
07:24 song ID?
Rui Almeida
A brilliant driver, knowlegeable and revered by the most important F1 engineers, simply one of the greatest F1 drivers. A three time world champion Lauda considered amongst the greatest.
Felipe Amaro
It's funny that many of these moments are marked by Mansell's mistakes.
wabba67
5:19 "Both were fuelled to the end of the race" Yeah, because in-race refuelling was not allowed...
de prime
that last lockup pass on the outside was f$$$king brilliant. racing at its best fo sho!
João Vinicius
Nelson Piquet não deve absolutamente NADA para Ayrton Senna.
Ambos com 3 títulos mundiais, mas no caso do Piquet, com 3 motores diferentes, em duas equipes distintas e com um número bem menor de vitórias. É válido relembrar a importância da participação do Nelson para a tecnologia turbo na F1, assim como na inserção do aquecimento de pneus e no reabastecimento durante as corridas. Do mais um piloto extremamente técnico, estrategista, sincero e muito zoeiro kkkkkkkkkk
Vida longa ao Nelsão!
João Vinicius
Nelson Piquet, Ayrton Senna and Emerson Fittipaldi: the most holy trinity of Brazilian pilots of all time!
Gabriel Crescente
Complete package
Icedevice1000
Finnaly. Piquet is so underrated that it's annoying. People always upping the likes of Villeneuve, Mansell or Mika who would be no match for Nelson in is prime. This is a proper great one.
Spac18
Better than Senna
Paulo Filho
11° momento, princesa Stephanie de Mônaco

legendas em português plz
Allan Wallace
The only driver in F1 history to win a WDC with a BMW engine.
A genius, a legend.
Allan Wallace
Finaly the one above all, the master of BRILLIANCE.
walmei Jr
Porra! Tem mais gringos nos comentários que brasileiros.
Tricolor Flu
O Piquet é tão grande quanto o Senna e o Prost , só não vê isso quem é cego !
Pedro Chemim
The most underrated driver ever! He is a 3 times world champion and people still think Stirling Moss was better. The power of media.
Pedro Chemim
Piquet > Senna.
Gabriel Santos
MELHOR PILOTO BR E QUEM DISCORDA VAI TOMA NO CU
Angelo Nogueira
Driver engineer and projector. Champion for three times.
The best brazilian champion.
Kenaimecode
Grande Piquet
Lisiane Miranda
Sensational doesn't necessarily mean "brilliant" Sensational can mean an action or statement causing a startling or shocking effect, strong or intense reaction... Such as when you use the phrase "News sensation" or "sensational news" it doesn't mean excellent news, it means shocking or surprising news. ( MetalHead Reacts
)
Nathan Williams
Thank you Formula 1 for uploading this. It seems unfair that of all the drivers with 3+ WCs, Piquet is portrayed as the odd one out, especially in Europe. Piquet was a highly intelligent, astute, quick driver with a high level of engineering ability, which often gets overlooked.
That Las Vegas circuit was brutal - nearly 40 degrees Celsius, and high-G-force, constant radius corners in ground-effect cars :( Would have liked to have seen one of Nelson's wins from 1980 - his drives in Long Beach and Holland were fab.
Juca Lebre
Vai Brasil!
Gabriel Estevam
Melhor que o Senna mil vezes mas as viúvas nunca vão admitir
manuel carvalho
Top One
Alex Bernadina
You must feel sorry for Nigel. And Nelsons honest answer: I dont feel sorry for nobody, haha.

Segundo a lenda, a expressão Picas vem de Piquet 🤣🇧🇷

Aí Nelson, está é pra você o melhor tri campeão Brasileiro vivo! Parabéns pelas conquistas, e obrigado pelas emoções!
Ragher
Such a mere coincidence that Piquet finally appears here as soon as Rede Globo stops broadcasting F1 races in Brazil.
(Uma mera coincidência o Piquet aparecer por aqui tão logo a Rede Globo tenha deixado de transmitir a F1 no Brasil).
igor vinicius
The Best 🇧🇷

He was and always will be my favourite F1 driver.
I haven't rooted for anyone else since his retirement.
