He was airlifted to Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge where it was found he had suffered a severe traumatic brain injury.
Repeat CT head scans showed he had unsurvivable injuries in the crash.
Despite intensive care at the hospital, his condition continued to deteriorate until he died from his injuries on May 18.
The inquest into his death was officially opened at Suffolk Coroners' Court in December 2023, with a full inquest scheduled to take place on April 8 this year.
But on Friday morning, coroner Mr Darren Stewart OBE adjourned Mr Jacobs' inquest until October 20 to allow for further evidence to be collected.
