Charles Leclerc believes his friend and mentor Jules Bianchi deserved his seat at Ferrari. The 22-year-old driver rose through karting's ranks with great support of Bianchi who was 8 years older. At the time Leclerc made the switch from karting to cars, Bianchi had just reached Formula 1. As member of Ferrari's Driver Academy he got a chance at Marussia. A huge crash during the 2014 Japanese Grand Prix left the talented French driver with severe head injuries. Nine months later Bianchi died because of his injuries.
