The group, which includes former Mercedes team principal Ross Brawn and ex-Ferrari counterpart Stefano Domenicali, will carry out a full review of the accident to gain a better understanding of what happened, and will propose new measures to reinforce safety at circuits.
The work of the group will start this week and a full presentation of its findings will be made to FIA President Jean Todt at the next meeting of the FIA’s World Motor Sport Council in December in Doha, Qatar.
Bianchi remains in a critical but stable condition in hospital in Japan after he lost control of his Marussia in wet conditions late in the Suzuka race and collided with a recovery vehicle.
