On this day in 2014, the Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka was held in treacherous wet conditions caused by Typhoon Phanfone, which brought heavy rain throughout the race. Lewis Hamilton won for Mercedes after passing his teammate, but the race is remembered above all for the accident that left Marussia driver Jules Bianchi with fatal injuries.
