Launched in 1930, the Bugatti Type 50 heralded a new era with the introduction of the Molsheim marque’s first twin-cam design, a supercharged 4.9-litre straight-eight engine of prodigious power. At a time when brute force was needed to win the Le Mans 24 Hours, a competition version was developed and three such Type 50s took part in 1931. The car around which this book is focused, 50177, was leading the famous endurance race when the team withdrew it owing to tyre failures that had afflicted the sister cars, causing one to crash heavily at high speed. The fascinating story of 50177, and the Type 50 in general, is told in this brilliantly researched and superbly illustrated book in the Great Cars series. Introductory chapters explain the economically perilous world of 1931, the genius of Ettore and Jean Bugatti, the bloodline of large-capacity Bugatti engines, and the Type 46 from which the Type 50 was derived. There follows an in-depth exploration of the Type 50’s design and development, including the Miller inspiration behind its twin-cam engine. The four Le Mans races in which Type 50s took part form the core of the book and tell a story of promise unfulfilled. The subject car, 50177, raced three times, in 1931 as a works entry with race no. 5 (driven by Albert Divo and Guy Bouriat) and in 1934 and 1935 with works assistance as no. 2 (driven by Pierre Veyron and Roger Labric). A section about the drivers presents illustrated biographies of the four men who raced 50177 as well as the four others in the 1931 works team — Louis Chiron and Achille Varzi in no. 4 and Maurice Rost and Count Caberto Conelli in no. 6. Post-war, three-time Le Mans winner Luigi Chinetti bought 50177 in 1949 and took it to America, where it spent nearly 50 years with five different owners. The last of them was Miles Coverdale, a passionate Bugatti collector who kept the car for 23 years and uncovered much of its history through correspondence with former works mechanics, notably Robert Aumaître. Co-authors Mark Morris and Julius Kruta, wellknown in the Bugatti world for their immense knowledge and enthusiasm, present a wealth of fresh information and illustration in this fine book.

ANGELA MERKEL, CHANCELLOR OF GERMANY (VIA INTERPRETER) This fourth term is my last term as Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany. In the next Bundestag election in 2021, I will not run again as chancellor. I will not run for the German Bundestag anymore, and I will not take any other political positions. FREDERIK PLEITGEN, CNN CORRESPONDENT After 13 years as chancellor, Angela Merkel [is] saying she wants to begin a new chapter. Her decision [is] a sign of a weakened position in her party—a party that suffered poor results in a regional election this weekend. Despite recent struggles, over her long career, Angela Merkel became, arguably, the world’s most powerful woman. She adopted several nicknames along the way, including “Mutti”, or “Mama” Merkel. No matter what she has been called, though, Angela Merkel has proven to be a force to be reckoned with. She grew up in East Germany under its Communist regime, studying to be a scientist. But after the Berlin Wall fell in 1989, she threw herself into the world of politics, working to reunify Germany after the Cold War. She had a knack for toppling those who underestimated her. Her mentor, the formidable Chancellor Helmut Kohl, used to tease her for her provincial manners. And yet, within a decade, she was calling for his resignation as he faced allegations of corruption. By 2005, she’d become the country’s first female chancellor. Known for being pragmatic and understated, though some found her indecisive—early on, she was criticized for being slow to act and reticent to speak out. Merkel showed her resolve in 2015 when she allowed more than a million refugees—most fleeing from Syria’s civil war—to cross into Germany. It was initially applauded by many Germans, but later heavily criticized by those who believed Germany was overburdened. Merkel’s answer to her critics was “wir schaffen das”—we can manage. It was a decision that has come to define her political career. Merkel is one of the longest-serving leaders in Europe. She’s worked alongside three U.S. presidents, four British prime ministers and four French presidents. Under her leadership, the country has grown prosperous and powerful, but Angela Merkel has also challenged Germany to open up and shoulder more responsibility for global problems. As she prepares to step down in 2021, Germany will need to decide if its new leader should continue down that path. CNN特派員 弗瑞德克．普雷根 這是預示著德國總理任期進入尾聲的宣言。 德國總理 安格拉．梅克爾（經由口譯） 第四任期是我擔任德意志聯邦共和國總理的最後一個任期。在二○二一年的下一屆德國聯邦議院選舉中，我不會再以總理身分參選。我不會再角逐德國聯邦議院的席次，也不會再接任何其他政治職務。 CNN特派員 弗瑞德克．普雷根 當了十三年的總理之後，安格拉．梅克爾說她想要展開新的篇章。她的決定顯示她在黨內的地位變弱了——該黨在本週末的地方選舉中的結果失利。 儘管近來陷入困境，但安格拉．梅克爾在她漫長的職涯中可說成了全球最有權勢的女性。她一路走來得到不少暱稱，包括「Mutti」（編按：德文），就是梅克爾「媽媽」。不過，不論人們怎麼稱呼安格拉．梅克爾，她已證明自己是股不容忽視的力量。 她在共產黨政權統治下的東德長大，受的是科學家的教育。但是在柏林圍牆於一九八九年倒下之後，她卻一頭栽進了政壇，致力讓德國在冷戰後重新團結起來。 她對於打倒那些看不起她的人很有一套。她的恩師是令人敬畏的海爾穆．柯爾總理，他以前常取笑她土裡土氣的言行舉止。然而，不到十年，她便在柯爾面臨貪腐指控時要求他下台。 時至二○○五年，梅克爾成了德國第一位女性總理。她以務實與低調著稱，儘管有些人認為她優柔寡斷——早期她因為行事拖宕、遲於表態而遭批評。 梅克爾在二○一五年展現了她的決心，當時她允許超過一百萬名難民入境德國——多數是自敘利亞的內戰逃出的。此舉起先獲得許多德國人民的讚賞，但後來卻遭認為德國負擔過重的人猛烈批評。梅克爾對批評者的回應是「wir schaffen das」（編按：德文）——我們應付得來。這是一項從此定義了她的政治生涯的決策。 梅克爾是歐洲在任時間數一數二長的領導人。她在位期間歷經了三任美國總統、四任英國首相與四任法國總統。在她的領導下，德國發展得繁榮而強大，但安格拉．梅克爾也要求德國敞開心胸並為全球問題肩負起更多責任。隨著她準備在二○二一年下台，德國將必須決定其新任領導人是否要繼續沿著那條路走下去。

Bugatti Type 57 Grand Prix by Neil Max Tomlinson Pdf
This work examines the Type 57 Grand Prix cars, the creation of Jean Bugatti, Ettore's eldest son. The late Hugh G Conway wrote in Bugatti - Le pur sang des automobiles, that, after 1935, 'Bugatti's racing programme became involved and very confusing to the humble historian, without accurate factory records.' The T57G's story is complex and has taken more than forty years to draw together, study and evaluate. Revealing new material, Tomlinson takes the view that existing records can be reinterpreted with a revised mindset, challenging conformist beliefs and dismissing many conventions. The book describes the 57G's racing career and evolution through its siblings, the Types 57, 57S and 59. Type 57G characteristics are identified, with race-to-race body and chassis details described, and the Type 57G, 57S45, 57 'Sport' and 57C Le Mans cars are defined, and their enigmatic history revised. This book celebrates the Bugatti T57 Grand Prix racing cars: their origins, triumphs, failings, trivia, trinkets, and a little about the personalities behind them, interwoven with the social and political influences of those times.
