John K Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 Sad news that Bianchi passed away last night. A sobering reminder that motor sports are dangerous. Quote
Marcus Barlow - Show and Events Co-ordinator Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 very sad http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/formula1/33578770 Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 Was only reading the fathers statement the other day, what a sad development. Quote
Jonk179 Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 Very sad. He was a real talent of the future, getting the Marussia to perform way past its capabilities. There was some really bad track management in that race, hopefully his accident has improved track safety. Quote
pistonbroke Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 No doubt he will be remembered along with Roger Williamson , Tom Pryce ,Tony Brise rising stars who had shown a remarkable talent and were cruelly taken away from us . RIP Julian Quote
XTR2Turbo Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 Very tragic Expect Schumacher must be imminent too sadly Quote
M444TTB Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 I think Michael Schumacher's condition is a lot better than Bianchi's ever was. So sad though. I'd kinda expected this following his Father's press release about a week ago where he talked about Jules not wishing to live on as Michael is. I wouldn't be surprised if he'd simply had his life support withdrawn and allowed to peacefully pass away. I've seen a few other suggest it, and is had the same thought myself, but I'd be very receptive to the idea of the FIA / FOM retiring his number (17 I think) from future use. Quote
John K Posted July 18, 2015 Author Posted July 18, 2015 It is so sad, Piston nailed it with his roll call... So many, so young... Yes they all knew the risks, and I guess some of us can remember when the seasons survival rates was barely 30%, but nowadays to lose anybody is a shock.... Quote
Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 Thus far I have not made a comment. I still cannot because nothing is adequate to do justice to the tragedy of the loss of such a young and talented man. 1 Quote
John Dolan - Wirral & North Wales AO Posted July 18, 2015 Posted July 18, 2015 Goodbye Jules. You could have been there with the best. Quote
