Awful circumstances, but a sport and a community coming together.
The drivers of the Formula One circuit put behind their competitiveness and rivalries this morning to remember a friend and a colleague.
Ahead of the Hungarian Grand Prix, the world’s finest drivers locked together in a touching huddle surrounding helmets that were offered in memory of Jules Bianchi.

The French man’s family even showed up in a show of real strength and courage just days after Bianchi’s funeral.
And everyone was keen to remember Jules in their own way today in Hungary.

A fire marshal even had his name imprinted on his helmet.
And the respect observed by everyone during the Hungarian national anthem was extremely emotional.
