Pierre Veyron (1 October 1903 – 1970) was a Grand Prix motor racing driver active from 1933 through until 1953. He is best remembered for his 1939 win at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, driving a Bugatti Type 57 with Jean-Pierre Wimille. Today, Bugatti Automobiles SAS' revival of the marque uses Veyron's name on its first car, the Bugatti Veyron.
