Piquet Jr is following in his father's footsteps
|
Nelson Piquet Jr wrapped up the British Formula Three Championship by finishing second behind James Rossiter on Sunday.
The Brazilian - son of former F1 star Nelson - sealed overall victory when main rival Adam Carroll only managed to finish in ninth at Brands Hatch.
"I was quicker than Rossiter and knew I had the pace to have a go for the lead, and I thought about it," said Piquet.
"But I kept thinking about the championship and thought better of it - it feels such a relief."
