Interesting film but there is also a Healey connection.
The Bugatti Veyron is named after Pierre Veyron who was a Bugatti driver
before WW2 and won the 1939 Le Mans 24 hour race in a Bugatti T57C with
co-driver Jean-Pierre Wimille.
After the war he ran other French cars such as Gordini.
However in 1952 and again 1953 he drove a Nash-Healey at Le Mans for the
Donald Healey Motor Company with co-driver Yves Girard-Cabantous.
As Joe Armour would say there are Healey connections everywhere.
