It's Ray Potter's ERA Delage
which appeared alongside ten ERAs in the 29 car field for this race. The car
had a 6-cylinder 1,488cc ERA engine with two-stage Roots supercharging, and the
programme of the event said this about the it:
'Ray Potter's ERA-Delage has
the engine from one of the ill-fated E-type ERAs in a 1927 GP Delage chassis.'
The Delage was one of Albert
Lory's 1927 Delage 15 S8 cars which had dominated the 1927 season, winning all
four of the European Grand Prix races.
