Brazil's Nelson Piquet Jr. wins both races in inaugural A1 Grand Prix

There is one helicopter parked next to the helipad at Bahrain's grand prix circuit. "Is it yours?" I ask Nelson Piquet Jr, the floppy-haired, 20-year-old Brazilian who last month won the inaugural A1 Grand Prix of Nations at Brands Hatch. "I don't have a helicopter," he says. "I don't even have a car."
