Louis Alexandre Chiron (3 August 1899 – 22 June 1979) was a Monegasque racing driver who competed in rallies, sports car races, and Grands Prix. He is the oldest driver ever to have raced in Formula One, having taken 6th place in the 1955 Monaco Grand Prix when he was 55.
Louis Chiron fell in love with cars and racing when he was a teenager. He started driving in Grand Prix races after World War I, in which he was seconded from an artillery regiment as a driver for Maréchal Pétain and Maréchal Foch.
In 1926 he won his first local race, the Grand Prix de Comminges, at Saint-Gaudens, near Toulouse, and went on to drive a Bugatti and an Alfa Romeo P3 to victories in the Marseille Grand Prix, the Circuit of Masaryk, and the Spanish Grand Prix. In 1929 he drove a Delage to 7th place in the Indianapolis 500. He won the 1931 Monaco Grand Prix—the only Monaco-born driver to have done so—and in 1933 he partnered with specialist endurance racer Luigi Chinetti to win the Spa 24 hours race.
Bugatti Chiron may refer to two cars named after Monegasque driver Louis Chiron:
In Greek mythology, Chiron (Pronounced Kai-RON/ˈkaɪrən/; also Cheiron or Kheiron; Greek: Χείρων "hand") was held to be the superlative centaur amongst his brethren. Chiron was notable throughout Greek mythology for his youth-nurturing nature. His personal skills tend to match those of Apollo, his foster father (sometimes along with Artemis); medicine, music, archery, hunting, prophecy. His parents were Cronus and Philyra.
Although a centaur, Chiron's physical appearance often differs somewhat from other centaurs, demonstrating his status and heritage. In traditional Greek representations of Chiron his front legs are human, rather than equine, this is in contrast to the traditional representation of centaurs,which have the entire lower body of a horse. This clearly sets Chiron apart from the other centaurs, making him easily identifiable. This difference may also have highlighted Chiron's unique lineage, being the son of Cronus. Chiron is often depicted carrying a branch with dead hares he has caught hanging from it. Chiron is also often depicted wearing clothes, demonstrating he is more civilised and unlike a normal centaur (the only other occasional exceptions to this rule are the centaurs Nessus and Pholus).
Coordinates: 48°31′32″N 07°30′01″E / 48.52556°N 7.50028°E / 48.52556; 7.50028
Automobiles Ettore Bugatti was a French car manufacturer of high-performance automobiles, founded in 1909 in the then German city of Molsheim, Alsace by Italian-born Ettore Bugatti. Bugatti cars were known for their design beauty (Ettore Bugatti was from a family of artists and considered himself to be both an artist and constructor) and for their many race victories. Famous Bugattis include the Type 35 Grand Prix cars, the Type 41 "Royale", the Type 57 "Atlantic" and the Type 55 sports car.
The death of Ettore Bugatti in 1947 proved to be the end for the marque, and the death of his son Jean Bugatti in 1939 ensured there was not a successor to lead the factory. No more than about 8,000 cars were made. The company struggled financially, and released one last model in the 1950s, before eventually being purchased for its airplane parts business in the 1960s. In the 1990s, an Italian entrepreneur revived it as a builder of limited production exclusive sports cars. Today, the name is owned by German automobile manufacturing group Volkswagen.

Pastor Maldonado talks to us exclusively about his amazingly quick lap times in free practice, the Williams team promise unfulfilled in qualifying - and the very heavy accident he suffered in the race, when Max Chilton tipped Pastor's Williams FW35 into the Tabac TecPro barriers. F1 Racing's Editor, Anthony Rowlinson, talks about some of the major Monaco issues (particularly the Pirelli/Mercedes testing furore) and we speak, too, to the GP2 Championship leader, Stefano Coletti, who on Saturday became the first Monegasque to win on home soil since Louis Chiron in 1931.

Popis z Wikipedie: Závody na starém Masarykově okruhu se jezdily od roku 1930 na trase Bosonohy-Nový Lískovec–Pisárky–Kohoutovice–Žebětín–Ostrovačice–Veselka–Bosonohy a jedno kolo měřilo 29,142 km. Okruh, který byl sestaven ze tří normálně používaných silnic, dokázali dělníci zbudovat za necelého půl roku. Výstavba stála téměř šest milionů korun československých a finanční záštitu nad stavbou převzala prezidentská kancelář. Už v roce 1929 souhlasil prezident Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk se žádostí, aby chystaný závodní okruh nesl jeho jméno. Při tvorbě okruhu se autoři inspirovali především německým Nürburgringem. A to přesto, že významnou iniciátorkou myšlenky brněnského okruhu Elišku Junkovou, legendární automobilovou jezdkyni, postihla právě na této trati osobní tragédie, když na ní smrtelně ...
