If you thought only Ferrari and Lamborghini offer exclusive track day experiences to its customers then you are wrong. Earlier this week Bugatti invited its closest friends, customers and fans to it annual track day experience at the famous Paul Ricard Circuit Le Castellet, near Marseille in South of France.

Paul Ricard Circuit is one of the world's most high-tech racing track, used by several racing teams for testing purposes, including F1 teams. The track has a total length of 5.8 km and the facility even has its own airstrip to be used by high profile visitors who land in their private jets.

Providing driving tips and aiding Veyron owners with high speed driving around the circuit was Pierre-Henri Raphanel, Bugatti test driver. He is the same person who set the world record in the Bugatti Veyron in 2010. Also part of the action was racing legend Jacques Bernard "Jacky" Ickx, a former F1 and Le Mans winner.
