Remembering Jules one year on

Sunday 17 July marks one year to the day since Jules Bianchi died from injuries sustained in the 2014 Japanese Grand Prix. Nine months after sustaining serious head injuries at Suzuka, Bianchi passed away in hospital in Nice. The Hungarian Grand Prix was the first race after his death and saw an emotional tribute to the young Frenchman as every F1 driver stood at the front of the grid, united in a circuit around Bianchi's race helmet.
