F1 shows its true strength for Bianchi

By:

Emotions were raw in the F1 paddock after Jules Bianchi's accident, and some of those doing most to help in the aftermath preferred not to shout about it, as JONATHAN NOBLE explains

Some people may be able to fool you for a while, but it's at times of stress and difficulty that a person's true colours shine through.

The last fortnight has been one of the toughest that Formula 1 has experienced for some time. Indeed, most people were still feeling incredibly raw arriving in Russia as the reality of Jules Bianchi's condition sunk in.
