Bugatti has once again pushed the limits of performance and craftsmanship, this time with an exclusive “Feeling The Track” event at Circuit Paul Ricard. The inaugural Bugatti Bolide customer drive experience brought together owners of this extreme hyper sports car for an unforgettable session of high-speed performance and precision driving.
Bugatti Bolide: A New Era of Track Performance
The Bugatti Bolide represents the pinnacle of track-focused engineering, powered by the legendary W16 engine and engineered for lightweight agility and maximum aerodynamics. Designed exclusively for the track, the Bolide delivers 1,600 horsepower, making it one of the most powerful Bugatti models ever created.
This special drive event was more than just an opportunity for owners to experience their cars—it was a tribute to Bugatti’s motorsport legacy, dating back to the brand’s early victories in European racing circuits.
Circuit Paul Ricard: The Perfect Testing Ground
Located in Le Castellet, France, Circuit Paul Ricard is one of the most iconic race tracks in the world, formerly home to the French Grand Prix. Known for its high-speed straights and challenging corners, the circuit provided the perfect environment for Bolide owners to push their machines to the limit.
Before stepping into their hyper sports cars, owners first trained in the Porsche 911 GT3 RS, refining their driving techniques under the guidance of Bugatti Pilote Officiels, including Bruno Spengler and Andy Wallace.
