Charles Leclerc Gets the F1 Community Emotional With His Latest Jules Bianchi Post

Similar to the Singapore GP, the Japanese GP also returns to the fold after a covid-induced hiatus. Every driver associates each track with their own particular reason and it can be hard to predict. However, we are sure what tragic memory Charles Leclerc associates with the Suzuka Circuit.

The Monegasque lost his godfather and friend Jules Bianchi after his accident at the Circuit. Bianchi, 25 at the time, was driving for a team called Marussia, but, like Leclerc, he was also a Ferrari academy driver. His accident in 2014, leading to his eventual demise in 2015, is the last time an F1 driver lost their life due to a track incident.

Bianchi’s dream was to drive for the Scuderia, which he never fulfilled. The Frenchman lost his life before making the switch to his dream team. Bianchi was a role model for Leclerc and also the one who took him to Maranello for the first time in his life. Leclerc often speaks about his late godfather and fulfilling his dream, which he has already done.

The Monegasque remembered his godfather this year with a post on Instagram on his death anniversary, 17th July. The post captioned, “7 years since you are gone 🤍🕊” features the two at a young age.
