The type 57 and later variants, of which 710 were built including the famous Atlantic and Atalante models, were built between 1934 and 1940. The final resurgence of the original Bugatti was the Type 251, completed in 1955 and designed by Gioacchino Colombo of Ferrari fame. The Type 251 was entered in the 1956 French Grand Prix, but was not competitive and retired after 18 laps.
