Talbot-Lago

Ran the pre-war T26C through the early 1950s. Its naturally aspirated 4.5-litre engine was slower than the supercharged Alfas but drank far less, so a Talbot could sometimes run a race non-stop while the front-runners refuelled twice. Rosier won Spa in 1950 that way.

Bleu de FranceFrance's international racing colour, under the convention that painted a car for the country that entered it until sponsor liveries took over around 1968. Not this team's own livery.
