    On this date, Jules Bianchi had his terrible (and avoidable) accident at Suzuka.
    Remained in coma for almost a year.

    Andrea de Cesaris, a friend, died in Rome on Rome's annular freeway. A survivor of terrific accidents,
    200 races and not 1 victory. He was bulletproof, but ironically a bike killed him.

    We still miss them.

    de Cesaris was killed riding a bike, not a bike killed him.

    Bad choice of words

    The only think I miss about Jules is the inability to design small light cars his death brought.

    I regret my bad choice of words :rolleyes:
    He was riding a bike, strictly semantics. If you commit 'seppuku', what killed you, the blade or you?
