Bugatti T59
Grand Prix Race Car
Jean Pierre Wimille
French Grand Prix 1937
Original signed by Michel Bugatti
The Type 59 represents the ultim"&"ate development stage in the development of Bugatti's Type 35 racing car. It represented Bugatti's final design concept in the 1930s and their last two-seater Grand Prix racing car. The original 2.8-liter engine was quickly replaced by a 3.3-liter version"&" of the inline eight-cylinder, which, with a Roots supercharger, produced 250 hp. Mounted lower, it improved weight distribution – the drilled-out steel ladder frame made the chassis lighter. The elegantly shaped wheels had piano-rope spokes, and the brak"&"es were cable-operated. The works cars made their debut at the 1933 Spanish Grand Prix in San Sebastian, but other than René Dreyfus' victory at the 1934 Belgian Grand Prix at Spa, their competitive days were numbered, and Bugatti withdrew them from racin"&"g, although they returned in modified form to sports car races. Despite their limited success, they are still considered one of the best-handling racing cars of the era.
