F1 world remembers Jules Bianchi on the anniversary of his passing
French racing driver Jules Bianchi passed away on July 17, 2015, at the age of 25.
Bianchi had been hospitalized since an incident at the 2014 Japanese GP on Oct. 5, 2014.
Sunday marks the one-year anniversary of the passing of the young Frenchman, who was regarded by many as a future champion. One of Bianchi’s many accomplishments came in 2014 when he scored the first points for Marussia which - arguably - was the slowest car on the grid at the time.
Many teams and drivers took to social media on Sunday to remember Jules Bianchi:
