赛车运动爱好者聚集法国南部城市尼斯参加F1车手儒勒·比安奇的葬礼。

 
Fellow drivers Sebastian Vettel and Felipe Massa were among the pallbearers for Bianchi. 
 
Two-time World champion Lewis Hamilton, FIA president Jean Todt, and his son Nicholas who was the manager for Bianchi, were also in attendance. 
 
Nicholas Todt remembers Bianchi as a nice person. 
 
"He was natural and humble1. You know that Formula 1 is a complicated vocation2, in which you can lose touch with certain things. He stayed humble and was kind with everyone. His grace set him apart from others."
 
Bianchi died over the weekend from head injuries sustained in the Japanese Grand Prix last October. He was 25. 
 
He is the first Formula One driver to have died of injuries sustained during racing3 since Ayrton Senna in 1994. 
 
Bianchi's number 17 Marussia car is being retired4 by the FIA in his honor. 
 
A minute of silence will be observed to pay tribute to the driver, ahead of the Hungarian Grand Prix this weekend.
