Formula 1 driver Jules Bianchi passes away, first F1 death since Senna
Jules Bianchi, the 25-year-old Formula 1 driver, passed away yesterday morning after being in a coma following his freak accident at the 2014 Japanese Grand Prix 9 months ago. At that time, Bianchi raced for a backmarker team — the Ferrari-powered Marussia F1 — and was among the best from the Ferrari Driver Academy program, Scuderia Ferrari’s own driver development program.
