Tributes have been paid to the late Jules Bianchi on what would have been his 27th birthday.

The former Marussia driver died last year from injuries sustained at the 2014 Japanese Grand Prix when he collided with a tractor recovering Adrian Sutil's stricken Sauber in heavy rain.

The Frenchman was also the first member of the Ferrari Driver Academy, and was said to be in line for a race seat with Sauber in 2015 and then Ferrari beyond that.

His protégé Charles Leclerc is now also a member of the FDA, and has tested with both Ferrari and Haas this year.

Jules Bianchi, 3 August 1989 - 17 July 2015
