Nelson was the son of a Brazilian government minister who did not approve of his racing career, and for this reason he was forced to use his mother's maiden name Piquet misspelt as Piket to hide his identity.
At the 1992 INDY500 he crashed hevily in practice wich left him with very badly crushed feet and legs.
As of July 2022, Piquet has been banned from the F1 paddock.
