Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse 'Legends' series honors Ettore's son, Jean Bugatti

Gianroberto Carlo Rembrandt Ettore Bugatti was the other Ettore, the eldest of Bugatti's four sons; when he wasn't spreading the full magnificence of his five names, they called him Jean. He was arguably the most talented of Ettore's sons -- as it turns out, none of Ettore's other children invented the Type 57SC Atlantic nor designed as much as he did of the astonishing Royale. He took over Bugatti in 1936, at the tender age of 27 -- and three years later he would be dead, having crashed a Type 57 race car during testing.
