Jenson Button pays tribute to Jules Bianchi, who died in the early hours of Saturday morning after spending nine months in a coma.

Jenson Button has paid tribute to Jules Bianchi following the 25-year-old's death.

Bianchi was involved in a crash at the Japanese Grand Prix back in October, and passed away in Nice in the early hours of Saturday morning after spending nine months in a coma.

Button tweeted: "Last night we lost a truly great guy and a real fighter #RIPJules my sincerest Condolences to his family and friends."


Bianchi is the first fatality in Formula 1 since the death of Ayrton Senna, who died after a crash at the San Marino Grand Prix back in 1994.
