Crash Jules Bianchi: F1 returns the contact in Sochi … – 20minutes.fr

FORMULA 1 – While the French driver is always treated in Japan, the pilots prepare the Russian Grand Prix …

#ForzaJules. The word is on everyone’s lips in Sochi, where the Formula 1 drivers are preparing to attack the Russian Grand Prix. Less than a week after the terrible accident Jules Bianchi at the Grand Prix of Japan, and while the French driver is still in a “critical but stable” condition, so the F1 delivers the gas. In a necessarily heavier atmosphere.

Bridgehead of the solidarity, another French, Jean-Eric Vergne, who took the initiative to make stickers to support his friend. Glued to the chassis of cars and the drivers’ helmets, they will be everywhere this weekend. Just like Lewis Hamilton, current leader of the drivers’ standings, “You are with us in spirit and in our hearts my brother. Our prayers are with you all over the world, “wrote the British on his Twitter account.



” All the biggest motorsport accidents in the past two years have led to injuries to the head “

As for the Marussia team, forced to enter two cars for the Grand Prix, it could announce Friday morning that she did in fact from one, that of Max Chilton, leaving it in the garage Bianchi. But beyond the best way to support the Bianchi family, the world of Formula 1 is also beginning to open for the umpteenth time the debate about the safety of racing. Although no driver died in the race since Ayrton Senna in 1994, the debate on the use of closed cockpits was reopened Thursday.

Why? Because “All the biggest motorsport accidents in the past two years have led to injuries to the head, so it’s probably one of the areas where we are not on top of security,” says Fernando Alonso (Ferrari) . For the double world champion, “closed cockpits are technically very difficult to achieve,” but “I tend to think that we should at least try this idea.” If it’s too late to Jules Bianchi, it’s not for his colleagues.
