These one off models are reminders of Bugatti\u2019s glorious motor-racing history which played a central role in popularising and ultimately establishing the myth which the&nbsp;brand continues to enjoy to this day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The Bugatti brand is almost inextricably linked to the Type 35. The Type 35 Grand Prix was by far the most successful racing model. The unmistakable radiator grille and eight-spoke aluminium wheels of the Type 35 have become defining features of the Bugatti automobile. In its day, the Grand Prix was also well ahead of its time in terms of engineering ingenuity. The front axle design of this vehicle, which, for reasons of weight minimisation, is hollow, is a true masterpiece of workmanship and was deemed nothing less than revolutionary. Its springs were passed through the axle to produce a high level of stability. The Grand Prix\u2019s brake drums were integrally fitted into its lightweight aluminium wheels. Unfastening the central wheel nut allowed the wheel to be easily removed within a matter of seconds and the brake to be exposed. This was a crucial advantage at the pit stop.<\/p>\n<h4>Four distinct personalities \u2013 Four Veyrons<\/h4>\n<p>Tradition being what it is, the Bugatti Veyron Specials built to mark the 100th anniversary of the brand feature the racing colours of the respective countries: blue for France, red for Italy, green for England and white for Germany. Each of the four new Veyrons has a specific \u201cpredecessor\u201d in the form of an original Grand Prix Bugatti on which it was modelled. These four historic race cars represent the generation of legendary Bugatti Grand Prix racers which were piloted by world-famous race-car drivers and which scored countless racing victories in the 1920s and \u201830s. Each of the four Veyron Specials is named after a Bugatti race-car driver of the 1920s and 30s. Jean-Pierre Wimille has given the blue Veyron its name, Achille Varzi the red one, Malcolm Campbell the green one and Hermann zu&nbsp;Leiningen the white Veyron.<\/p>\n<p>Jean-Pierre Wimille was one of the longest-serving drivers at Bugatti. He only joined the team in Molsheim in 1933, but subsequently remained loyal to the brand, ultimately driving home Bugatti\u2019s last-ever victory in 1947 at Bois de Boulogne in a 4.7-litre Monoposto Type 59\/50 B. Wimille\u2019s many previous successes included winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1937 and 1939. Achille Varzi was a member of the official Bugatti team from 1931 to 1933. He had already achieved many successes since 1928 driving a private Type 35 C, then later went on to win the Monaco Grand Prix, an event on Berlin\u2019s Avus circuit and other races. As the setter of numerous world records for speed, the name&nbsp;Malcolm Campbell is firmly established in racing history. He also competed in countless \u201cnormal\u201d&nbsp;races from 1911 and 1936, often piloting a Bugatti Type 39 A or Type 35, and he owned one of the legendary Type 57 S street sports cars. Prinz Hermann zu Leiningen\u2019s career driving Bugattis began in 1927 when he purchased a Type 40 chassis, for which he had a racing body built. He went on to win a number or races in a privately owned Type 37 A before eventually standing in the spotlight of the international racing scene in a 35 C for several years from 1930 onward.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have put a lot of effort into translating colour and material, the defining characteristics of our historic role models, into the designs of the modern-day Veyrons,\u201d explains Alasdair Stewart, Director Sales &amp; Marketing at Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S. \u201cWe have taken extreme care to match the original colours of the original race cars, exterior and interior\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>On Sunday, the four historic racing Type 35s and the four modern-day Centenaire Edition Veyrons<br \/>\nwill be exhibited alongside each other in the park of Villa Erba for the first and only time.<\/p>\n<p>Story by Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Pictures &amp; Gallery<\/h2>\n<p>See full <a
