Piquet made a few off-colour remarks in the press about Senna (being gay) and Mansell (having an unattractive wife) but on the whole I think he was reasonably well liked. Apparently his mechanics at Brabham adored him. Sir Frank described him as very laid back with an odd sense of humour. Like Raikkonen he was able to sleep just before the start of a race. Wish I was so chilled.
