The company also enjoyed great success in early [[Grand Prix motor racing]]: in 1929, a privately entered [[Bugatti Type 35#Type 35B|Bugatti]] won the first ever [[Monaco Grand Prix]]. Bugatti's racing success culminated with driver [[Jean-Pierre Wimille]] winning the [[24 hours of Le Mans]] twice (in 1937 with [[Robert Benoist]] and in 1939 with [[Pierre Veyron]]).

Bugatti cars were extremely successful in racing. The little [[Bugatti Type 10]] swept the top four positions at its first race. The 1924 [[Bugatti Type 35]] is one of the most successful racing cars - developed by Bugatti with master engineer and racing driver [[Jean Chassagne]] who also drove it in the car's first ever Grand Prix in 1924 Lyon.<ref>L’Automobiliste, 1971 P. 7</ref> Bugattis swept to victory in the [[Targa Florio]] for five years straight from 1925 through 1929. [[Louis Chiron]] held the most podiums in Bugatti cars, and the modern marque revival Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S. named the 1999 [[Bugatti 18/3 Chiron]] concept car in his honour. But it was the final racing success at Le Mans that is most remembered—Jean-Pierre Wimille and Pierre Veyron won the 1939 race with just one car and meagre resources.[[File:Hugh llewelyn ZZy 24408 (5729560683).jpg|thumb|Bugatti Railcar|alt=]]
