In the wake of the terrorist attacks in Paris on the Friday evening of the race weekend , Formula One decided to honour the victims with all drivers wearing black armbands during the parade lap on race day as well as the French '' tricolore '' being displayed on the truck that took the drivers around the track . French driver Romain Grosjean had already worn an armband with the flag of his country during Saturday 's sessions . However , a long planned minute of silence for the World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims was upheld and plans to dedicate the salute to the Paris attacks discarded
