 Formula One driver Jules Bianchi of the Marussia F1 Team Formula One, the world motorsport governing body said Monday, a day before the French driver's funeral in Nice. "As F1 car numbers are now personally chosen by each driver, the FIA believes it to be an appropriate gesture to retire Jules Bianchi's number 17," the FIA said in a statement. "As a result, this number can no longer be used for a car competing in the FIA Formula One World Championship." Bianchi died late Friday as a result of severe head injuries suffered in a crash at the 2014 Japanese Grand Prix last October. Earlier Monday, Bianchi's Manor team invited members of the public who wished to pay their respect to the 25-year-old to gather outside the Sainte Reparate Cathedral during the funeral. Places inside the cathedral are to be reserved for family, friends and colleagues. | |||||
