Following Jules Bianchi's accident in Japan, the next race at Sochi saw the grid pause for a minute's silence ahead of the start of the race. The Hungarian Grand Prix organisers have now confirmed the same tribute will be carried out on Sunday at the Hungaroring, just over a week after Bianchi passed away following nine months in a coma.
