Bugatti bestows a three-car show to pay homage to the centenary 24 hours of Le Mans

This year marks the centenary of 24 hours of Le Mans, one of the most famous motorsport events in the world. And hypercar maker Bugatti showcased its lightest-ever track-focussed hypercar, the Bolide, to the public for the first time to commemorate it. The Bugatti Bolide completed a lap of the 24-hour Le Man’s circuit with Andy Wallace, Le Man's winner in 1988, behind the wheel of the track-only hyper sports car. Two more Bugattis were exhibited during the historic celebrations - an iconic Bugatti Type 50S put up on display and a blue Bugatti EB110S “Le Mans” that took to the track. Christophe Piochon, President of Bugatti Automobiles, added: “There is no better way to celebrate 100 years of Le Mans than by premiering a Bugatti feat that is simply unlike anything we have ever done before. Bugatti and the 24 Hours of Le Mans have a deep and long-standing connection - we were there for the very first race 100 years ago. I speak on behalf of Bugatti when I say that we are incredibly proud to have created another historic and unique moment at Le Mans; a moment that will be cherished forever.”
