Romain Grosjean will pay tribute to the late Jules Bianchi with a special helmet for the Monaco Grand Prix which features a picture of the Frenchman, his race number and the date of Bianchi's best result.
Bianchi scored Marussia's first ever – and only – points finish at the 2014 Monaco GP with ninth place, but was later involved in a tragic accident with a recovery vehicle several races later in Suzuka, Japan.
He later passed away from his injuries having spent several months in a coma.
With rules on helmet designs much more restrictive than previous seasons, Grosjean has added the small tribute to the rear without changing the overall look of the helmet – which is permitted under the regulations.
