Jules Bianchi 1989-2015


" If  I never become a World Champion , I'd be happy even If I died trying"- Jules Bianchi 


 Jules was the "real deal" behind the wheel.  A popular figure in F1 he is thought to be the future champion .Jules Bianchi has certainly left his mark on. 


The death of Jules has shocked the entire Motorsport world , even though may doubted his chances for survival following his horrific crash at the Japanese Grand prix in 2014. His death has now sent F1 into another period of self-examination.Jules is the First driver to die due injuries sustained during a grand prix since Ayrton senna and Austria Rookie Roland Ratzenberger in 1994.

 Tributes have poured in from fans all around the world , from many F1 drivers and other popular sport figures like David Beckham and Yohan blake . A tweet from French president Francois Hollande says : "It is with great emotion that I learned of the death of Jules Bianchi. French sport loses with him one of his greatest hopes."

 Jules was fast and competitive. Driving for the smallest team in the paddock, Marussia ( now Manor) he managed to score his and their first race points so far in Monaco last year by finishing in a stunning P9. Part of the Ferrari drivers Academy , Jules was set to drive for the championship winning team sooner or later.   Jules was set for a bright future in Formula One. 

 This incident is reminder to everyone that F1 is a dangerous sport. As of Senna's death many safety measure were put in place to ensure such an incident would never happen again. F1 hopefully will apply whatever they have learnt from this incident and make the sport safer. 
Holding on to what Jackie Stewart said " Racing drivers never die.Their spirits are too strong and they never go away " .Jules will never be forgotten. 
Rest in Peace Jules. You will be missed.

 Until the Next race
Goodbye and Forza Jules.

Tous Avec Jules.
