Bugatti: Italian man who moves to Germany and builds his factory in Molsheim, Germany (Elsass-Lothringen), then his country loses WW1 and it becomes French province again, spends his life in France, later his company goes bankrupt, Italian businessman buys it (Bugatti S.p.A) and creates the EB 110, then goes bankrupt, German Volkswagen brand buys the brand again (Bugatti S.A.S) but moves the factory from Campogalliano back to Molsheim, France and continues to build cars there. Bugatti = sign of Italian-French-German team work
@@aureliano_37 the only thing France did to say “Bugatti is French” is win the Second World War and make Alsace and Lorraine French again. Ettore moved from Milan to Molsheim, which was Germany, and lived the entire life as Italian, he received his French citizenship in 1946 one year before his death. Way more Italian and German than French.
- how dare your forget the Nicola Romeo from Alfa Romeo & Maserati brothers?? These fellas predates Ferrari and Lamborghini by decades, almost half a century.
This brand has to give everything to the Italian creator and the more then 100 years of Italian sport cars tradition. It has the Italian soul, spirit and passion of building sport cars. French don’t have anything of that and they agree. In fact the brands that belong to France are Citroen, Renault and Peugeot. Those are the carmaker that everyone associates to french cars. Germany historically at least always had something competitive in car race competition with Mercedes-Benz or a car brand that produces sport cars as Porsche though they really never competed in international racing. The shame is how that BUGATTI exclusively appears as french with the french flag on it. This is something that angers Italians a lot but at the end of the day Italians itself fucked up as the company turned back to Italy in the 90’s but the chance to let this Italian car brand shine again broke. Then VW Group bought it and now this are the consequences. Just look to the great past of Alfa Romeo or Maserati. Alfa Romeo particularly should be a brand at the same level of Porsche or Maserati. In stuff like that Germans made it clearly better then Italians to increase their carmakers. Only Ferrari and Lamborghini, Ferrari in particular, which should be considered the most important and famous one, are the only that continued to make great cars and history without any interruption of an financial crisis or wrong management.
This video is a factual whitewash. Just a few examples, no mention that he was paid for 150m francs by the Germans for the factory in WW2, the fact his first child by his 2nd wife was born out of wedlock before his first wife died, the fact Ettore had a stroke at Dorlisheim after attending the court of appeal and visiting the tree Jean had died at. This great man deserves better, we need to see his faults and foibles as well as his greatness.
@Stefano Paganini be Napoleone che ci piaccia o no era francese, di origini italiane ma francese. Altrimenti noi non potremmo considerare Foscolo italiano. Ad essere sinceri poi i francesi hanno più diritti sulla bugatti, in quanto è legalmente francese se dovessimo rintracciare la genealogia di ogni fondatore di una qualsiasi impresa per poter determinare in che modo definire la nazionalità della data impresa i conflitti tra paesi al riguardo non finirebbero più. Non so si potrebbe quindi dire che Francesco hayez non è un pittore italiano ma francese. Quindi io mi accontento dell'1/3 personalmente
@Stefano Paganini be si potrebbe essere un'idea però non per continuare ad andarti contro però anche lì io non la definire prettamente italiana altrimenti la lamborghini per dire dovrebbe essere definita tedesca in quanto fa parte del gruppo Volkswagen ora come ora
@@francishallare204 yeah, that's true unfortunately, it is because the brand was dormant from late 40s to early 90s, while Ferrari and Lamborghini were thriving

@Tifosi Bianconero 1897 e lo sarà per sempre! Le iniziali che leggono sul volante dell’auto sono di un nome italiano. Ettore Bugatti! Ben detto gobbo!
I wish the headquarters were still in Italy

@@HeresTheGenZFlorentineFolks. Alsace Moselle was already French way before WW2 after Louis XIV annexed the land from the Holy Roman Empire.
Proud to be an Italian 🇮🇹 ! The country that has produced some of the most brilliant automotive designers and engineers.
Everything started from an Italian man!
Yes, Ferruccio, Enzo and Ettore the 3 most successful Italian automotive industrialists and designers
@@aureliano_37 uh Karl Benz? Gottleib Daimler? Ferdinand Porsche?

It's common sense no French man is named Ettorre or has the Last name Bugatti
Bugatti is an Italian last name.
Great
He is epic guy

Ettore Bugatti came from a very wealthy milanese family: they were artists, engineers, musicians and intellectuals in general...
The drawings are heavenly, thank you for sharing Ettore and his life work.
Bugatti is Italian!!!!
jasco84 ettore yes but the brand is french
@@daravidmey7206 from the Molsheim, the German speaking city in Alsace - but it perfectly shows the cultural community of Europe
Let's all agree is 1/3 Italian 1/3 French and 1/3 German, a truly European brand

I WOKE UP IN A NEW BUGATTI!!!!
I got surprised when I heard that BUGATTI suddenly is french some years ago.
Ettore was Italian, Bugatti has it's headquarters in a province that's occupied by France unfortunately
@@aureliano_37 Alsace Lorraine has been French since 13th Century.

@@cavius8784 immigrants italian*
If Bugatti is German so jaguar is Indian, seat and Skoda German?
Ettore bugatti 🇮🇹
Bugatti brand is a waste it could've been the Ferrari of France
Nope, it should have been in Italy where it belongs, also the brand is not a "waste"
@@aureliano_37 No what I meant is it doesn't have the racing heritage that Ferrari has.
@@francishallare204 yeah, that's true unfortunately, it is because the brand was dormant from late 40s to early 90s, while Ferrari and Lamborghini were thriving
