I took the photograph of this car in the paddock being prepared to participate in the Williams Trophy for Pre-1934 Grand Prix Cars at the VSCC's SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in May 2011. The race celebrates the win of Grover Williams in the first Monaco Grand Prix in 1929 and the trophy that he won in that race is in the custody of the Bugatti Trust, and is given to the winner of this race to hold for one year.
The car is the 1925 Bugatti Type 35B of Chris Hudson and has a supercharged 2,262cc straight-8 engine. It was driven in the race by Michael Hudson.
On 9 December 2015 I showed three photographs of this car being unloaded from its transporter earlier that day.
Thanks for taking the time to share this wonderful photo with us. It was just so incredible to be such a beauty and hope you had a great time that day. Have a great rest of your day and keep up the posts.
