There have been rumours that the political unrest in the country is caused due to the change in Government. That being said, F1 is said to be not worried about the happenings in and around Brazil. But F1 fans still cannot get past what Piquet had to say.

Recently, the 3x Champion also came under fire for his comments towards Lewis Hamilton. The Brazilian was put down for the comments he had made which were understood to be racist in nature. However, later on, he did come out to apologise to the 7x Champ.

F1 fans aren’t too pleased with how the Brazilian has come out to spark outrage in the public. F1 drivers and former champions have a lot of pull in the media and the public. That being said, fans were unhappy that Piquet used the platform he has for spreading such comments and opinions.
