Philippe Bianchi: “We must be strong like Jules”

Since that October day in Suzuka very little has been known about the conditions Jules Bianchi ended up going straight with his Marussia into the crane that was recovering Sutil's recently exited car on the escape route of turn 7.

But now, a few days before the start of the 2015 world championship, he is a father Philippe to put the spotlight back on the matter. “My son is still in a coma and until he wakes up, if he ever does, we will have nothing to do but wait. Not even the doctors have an opinion – he revealed to La Gazzetta dello Sport – It is certainly difficult to accept that at any moment terrible news could arrive from the hospital, however we must be strong with him and for him”.

So on the investigation of FIA regarding the dynamics of the facts which dismissed the case as pilot error, he concluded: “We have appointed a lawyer and I really think we will file a lawsuit. This was not a normal racing episode. If anyone is responsible, they will have to pay."
