RM-S8 Report post Posted July 13, 2015 I doubt there is any chance he ever recovers from that impact. Sadly, I agree. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HannibalACP82 Report post Posted July 18, 2015 It is with deep sadness that the parents of Jules Bianchi, Philippe and Christine, his brother Tom and sister Mélanie, wish to make it known that Jules passed away last night at the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire (CHU) in Nice, (France) where he was admitted following the accident of 5th October 2014 at Suzuka Circuit during the Japanese Formula 1 Grand Prix. “Jules fought right to the very end, as he always did, but today his battle came to an end,” said the Bianchi family. “The pain we feel is immense and indescribable. We wish to thank the medical staff at Nice’s CHU who looked after him with love and dedication. We also thank the staff of the General Medical Center in the Mie Prefecture (Japan) who looked after Jules immediately after the accident, as well as all the other doctors who have been involved with his care over the past months. “Furthermore, we thank Jules’ colleagues, friends, fans and everyone who has demonstrated their affection for him over these past months, which gave us great strength and helped us deal with such difficult times. Listening to and reading the many messages made us realise just how much Jules had touched the hearts and minds of so many people all over the world. “We would like to ask that our privacy is respected during this difficult time, while we try to come to terms with the loss of Jules.” Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LPDADDY Report post Posted July 18, 2015 As sad as it is, it is a blessing for his family. It is not easy watching your child resting in a coma with no brain function and being kept alive for the sake of it. Terrible tragedy for all RIP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellraiser Report post Posted July 18, 2015 RIP. He at least went out doing what he loved doing. It sucks that he was so young. A parent should never have to bury their child. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zmydust Report post Posted July 20, 2015 As a racer this has been a tough year, we have lost multiple racers this year including two in one incident this past weekend at Laguna Seca. It is a reminder of what you are laying on the line and offering up when you zip that suit up and head out to grid up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HannibalACP82 Report post Posted July 20, 2015 F1 doesn't always get it right but I thought it was classy to retire his number. As F1 car numbers are now personally chosen by each driver, the FIA believes it to be an appropriate gesture to retire Jules Bianchi’s number 17. As a result, this number can no longer be used for a car competing in the FIA Formula One World Championship. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
