Overview
- Philippe Bianchi announced on social media that his late son’s kart has been found, calling it a huge relief for the family.
- The burglary earlier this month involved nine JB17 chassis karts stolen from the Brignoles home, including the last kart Jules raced before moving to single-seaters, plus several children’s mini-karts.
- A few karts and a mini motorcycle remain missing, with the family expressing hope they will be recovered.
- Bianchi thanked those who shared the appeal, media outlets that amplified it, and local officers in Brignoles for their action.
- The family emphasizes the items’ sentimental value linked to Jules Bianchi’s early career and legacy after his fatal 2014 crash, which later informed F1 safety changes such as the halo.
