FORMULA 1’S history would be difficult to discuss without mentioning Williams Racing. Founded in 1977 by Sir FrankWilliams and Patrick Head, the Williams Racing team dominated Formula 1 shortly after its inception, amassing nine constructors’ championships and seven drivers’ championships through the 1980s and ’90s. Unfortunately, Williams has yet to find a winning season ever since the turn of the millennium. Over the past two decades, Williams’ performance has been trending downward with brief glimpses of the team’s early capabilities. In 2023, however, the team seems to be on pace to have its best season in years. WITH ALEX ALBON and Logan Sargeant as Williams’ drivers in 2023, the team has developed a new flow. The two drivers have been seeing their cars become better and betterwith each update. Anew aerodynamic…

Rolls-Royce’s latest bespoke creations move the goalposts for ultra-luxury excellence. Whether or not you’re a car enthusiast, you can appreciate the fact that in the automotive luxury world, Rolls-Royce is a household name. Across the world and beyond cars themselves, “Rolls-Royce” as a concept has become something to aspire to. You’ve surely heard it before: “the Rolls-Royce of blenders,” or “the Rolls-Royce of digital cameras.” When it comes to luxury, innovation, craftsmanship, and quality, the name has become virtually synonymous with excellence in and of itself, and for good reason. Famously, Rolls-Royce has been able to achieve an incredible level of quality and attention to detail in the luxury car world, with an unfathomably quiet and comfortable ride, as well as luxury appointments and configurability that allow clients to express…

No other car show in the world can compare to the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance and the entire Monterey Car Weekwith events that range from the Tour d’Elegance to The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering; the Rolex MontereyMotorsports Reunion races; and the Concourse. For 10 days every August, it’s as if multiple phenomenal automotive museums take over the coastal California county. With vintage cars, classics, supercars, and concept cars gathering in one place, Pebble Beach has it all during this exciting series of events. And Rolex, whose precision mechanical watches rival the finest cars, is right there in the excitement of it all. The Quail — perhaps the most luxurious and experiential garden party ever — showcases some of the finest cars in the world, from past to present and even…

This year, I decided I’d do things a little differently at Monterey Car Week, leaving behind the lightweight sports cars and supercars in favor of a true cruiser — and one that won’t be with us much longer. Not long ago, Bentley announced that it would cease W12 production in early 2024, so if you want to own or experience the engine that defined the brand for more than two decades, time is running out. After almost a week on the road and roughly 1,000 miles covered, I’m convinced the Continental GTC Speed is ideal for cruising Monterey’s coastline, twisty roads, and crowded streets during the famed event. With 650 horsepower on tap, the GTC ignores its hefty 5,388-pound curb weight, dashing to 60 mph in a supercar-esque 3.6 seconds…

Although Bugatti didn’t unveil a new model or concept at this year’s iteration of The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, the French carmaker pulled the covers off one of its most intricate projects. Based on a Chiron Super Sport, the Golden Era — and its hand-drawn livery — revisits the brand’s three major eras and the vehicles that have come to define Bugatti. Here, Bugatti director of design Frank Heyl discusses the Golden Era from concept to completion. duPont Registry: What makes one-off projects like the Golden Era so special? Frank Heyl: I wouldn’t call them “one-offs.” I would say “individualized” — heavily individualized. Pieces of art, actually. Rather than regard this as a car purchase, we say it’s an investment into an asset. Because these things remain in families, because this…

Imagine the vibrant energy of ‘60s rock music, the freedom symbolized by bell-bottoms and miniskirts, all wrapped around your wrist.
