    These Bugattis have long been my favourite cars. Those alloy wheels are so iconic, and as much pure art as they are wonderfully engineered solutions. The retired aero engineer and designer in me can just look at them for hours. You have an encyclopaedic knowledge of these amazing machines, and probably the best job in the world. Totally agree with you over the laws and freedoms. Sadly the normie sheeple have swallowed the official narratives, accepted the most draconian tyranny ever unleashed on Humanity, and adopted their pointless face nappies as comfort blankets - against what? We still have no real way of knowing! Thank you for sharing Peace

    While watching this video, I did not encounter any quick speech, preposterous behavior or music. I like it very much and what I appreciate is that you talk about these cars with such passion, and what's better, you only say direct information about this beautiful automotive industry and the history of this brand. Excellent video.

    This was amazing. Thank you for sharing your work and knowledge. What a treasure! I've been a Bugatti enthusiast for as long as I can remember. As a designer myself I always appreciated the way Bugatti so beautifully and uncompromisingly unified art and engineering. It seems you are keeping up that tradition. I sincerely hope you plan to make more videos like this. Bravo!

    I'm relatively new to Bugatti lore and just bought Conway's book "Grand Prix Bugatti" to educate myself, but you managed to distill Bugatti's grand prix engine development into an enjoyable 10 minute video. I almost feel like an instant expert- ok, not really, but I could maybe hold my own against the average gearhead on the subject. Thanks!

    I love this video. The casual share of his in-depth knowledge surrounded by what is arguably some of the most relevant vehicles in modern history casually in pieces, getting worked on, as a normal car would be. I'm feeling like if I'm being shown the queen's underwear and realizing she's just a normal human being... but she likes using panties... idk Absolutely fascinating. Subscribed. Teach us more, Master.

    Given that the T51 engine is capable of lots more power, is more torquey, does not suffer from the cooling and cracking issues of the T35 engine, why was the T55 a sales flop when its earlier counterpart the T43 was a success?

    Well, I guess the Great Depression could be one of the reasons why. By the 1930s, the effects of the depression is hitting European countries, so I guess most of the prospective customers ended up trying to save their money. Also, another one could be new competition. The then-new Alfa Romeo 8C family is the Italian counterpart to the Bugattis; 8C 2300 "Monza" countered the Bugatti Type 51, and the 8C 2300 sportscars competed with the Type 55. And the sporting successes of the Alfa Romeos probably contributed to the whole thing, just as the dominance of Bugatti in the mid-to-late 1920s probably played a role in their sales.
