Ferrari to decorate garage at Hungarian Grand Prix with Jules Bianchi tributes

Ferrari to add Bianchi tributes to garage

Formula 1 giants Ferrari have revealed that their garage at the Hungarian Grand Prix this weekend will be decorated with tributes to the late Jules Bianchi.

The 25-year-old was laid to rest in his hometown of Nice, France after passing away on Friday night from severe head injuries.

The Marussia driver, who was a member of the Ferrari Driver Academy, spent nine months in hospital after crashing into a recovery vehicle during the Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka last October.

On Twitter, Ferrari asked fans to send in their thoughts about the sportsman as the team aim to create a special tribute to the Frenchman in Budapest.

A post from the team's official Twitter account read: "Tweet your personal thought about Jules using #readseasonwall and #CiaoJules. We want an unique garage tunnel at the #HungariangGP!"

Reigning F1 champion Lewis Hamilton was one of many mourners who attended Bianchi's funeral on Tuesday.
