Jules Bianchi laid to rest in Nice

The 25-year-old, who had been tipped to be a future world champion, never regained conciousness after he hit a recovery vehicle head-on at a race in October.

The world of Formula One gathered at Sainte Reparate Cathedral in Nice for Jules Bianchi’s funeral on Tuesday.

Bianchi died on Friday night following the devastating brain injuries he sustained in a crash at the Japanese Grand Prix on October 5.
