It looks like the back, but the entire support is pushed back, suggesting his car went under the crane.

Unfortunately the HANS device is really a frontal impact system, not a side impact system...

That appears to be the rear wheels with the back of the car under the back of the crane.

Really hope he is holding up.

I'd like everybody to know that although I am posting all of the pictures here that Jules, his family, and the entire Marussia Team and family are in my thoughts and prayers.

I only post the pictures as I believe in passing along the information.

I posted a few tweets at first but quickly realized they were mostly speculation. I'll try to refrain from that and hope to only pass along the facts.

It's looking more and more like his head made contact with the crane.

Damn. So he really went below the crane.

His helmet must have impacted hard. Probably crushed down too.

The 'good' news is that the helmet seem to be almost intact

It looks like no roll hoop in this picture, but in other pics I see at least part of it there. Were pieces placed back on the car after Jules was removed?

I think after Jules was removed the engine cover and other parts were placed on top of the car before it was moved.

I agree with you, that last photo you posted doesn't have an engine cover.  Cover probably recoiled back toward the track from the impact when it came loose.

This isn't anything new or shocking but just adding for those interested.

Video from track after accident and it appears after Bianchi was removed.



I assume we will be seeing more fan videos pop up in the next 24 hours.

Interesting telemetry. It looks like Jules came into that corner pretty hot.

1994 all over again.

1 - FIA making a fucking mess again, changing radically the rules

2 - A driver going over the edge, because he's in a POS car

I think your response is a knee-jerk reaction. Assigning blame before all of the information is out and the important questions are answered is not a great idea at this time.

Bianchi is alive and reports are that he is breathing on his own. At this point it is a terrible accident, not a tragedy.

Great to know that Bianchi is alive. Not blaming him at all. What he's did in Monaco, I think it's more than Senna in 1984.

Just saying this is another messy season, that FIA change the rules without thinking on the persons inside the track. And, the tiniest team will be the most screwed. Will have spend with other things, than safety

Wouldn't matter if he was in any other car on the grid.. same thing would have occurred due to the nature of the accident and open cockpit racing.

Stupid incident, continuing to run under such conditions (both the hydroplaning and the safety tractor being out from behind the barriers).

I hope an otherwise epic track isn't neutered as a result (see: Imola).

I just finished watching my DVR'd copy of the race, and after the accident at the end, came strait here for the updates, and wow, those pics look pretty bad.  Looks like the whole car went under the back of the crane, and Bianchi's head made pretty sharp impact, plus, probably stoved his neck down int he cockpit to further worsen things.


Not good at all, and of course with the FIA, you'll never get any up to the hour official updates, and the speculators will go nuts  I lost a good gun buddy this weekend, I hate this stuff.

Doubt any kinda track change would prevent this.  Only thing I might see changing is more safety cars for stranded vehicles

I'm watching the replay on NBCSN right now (couldn't stay awake during the first few laps under caution last night).  Seeing Hamilton, Rosberg, and Vettel looking so glum right before the podium is eerie. . .

Well....I got about 30 laps into the replay on NBCSP before we got callled out.  DA FUQ?!?!?!?  The organizers had a chance to run the race sooner and they opted out?  Those conditions were horrible.  

Prayers sent for J Binachi....This is terrbile I hope he pulls through.  Bad news that they have put him back on life support.

I didn't want to see it this way, but maybe we'll see Alex Rossi on the grid in Sochi.  He is one of 2 reserve drivers for Marussia.

Hopefully Bianchi will recover fully, but he probably won't race for a little while either way.

Rossi seems like the obvious replacement since he was slotted to replace Chilton in Spa. That would give him a drive for the US GP too.

Really hoping we see Bianchi again though, I've said he was one of the most underrated drivers on the grid for a while.

Well, from the reports this sounds like a copy of Micheal Shumachers accident, but as we know all head injuries are different, so no jumping to conclusions.

I expect Jules will be in a coma for a while to see how bad the swelling will be to his brain, the real test is when they wake him from that coma.  No one has reported how bad the head injury was, so that is the key bit of info.

Where are you guys getting he's on life support? All I see is that he is out of surgery. Critical, and in intensive care, but not life support.
