Someone know wich tyres Chiron and Divo uses? I think Chiron uses Cup 2, correct?

Yes, but on a 6,2 km track to be 8 sec faster it is not enough with 35 kg less weight (wich is nothing on a two ton car) and 90 kg more down force (wich is little on a two ton car) and som chassis modification. No way. If I remember right standard tyres on Chiron is Cup 2, so I guess Divo uses the same since there are no grippier tyres - or maybe Michelin has developped some Cup 2 "R" for the Divo. If this is not the case 8 sec faster lap time is not possible, you don't need to be a F1 engineer to understand this.Chassis has been modified as well, in particular wheels' camber if I remember well, which is the reason why they have reduced the max speed => focus on agility for chassis set-up over straight line stability.
Is it wrong that I like the Scuderia livery best?
Bugatti used to have its headquarters in Italy, but yeah they're a french brandWho's the second italian brand ?
I was under the impression that Bugatti was founded by an Italian in Moslheim, Germany 1909 and then revived by another Italian in the 1990s. Then VW bought it. There's not really anything French about it.Bugatti used to have its headquarters in Italy, but yeah they're a french brand
Moslheim was historically German between 1871 and 1919 and is German-speaking.Moslheim is french. It's a french brand founded by an italian and made by french for most of its existence. It was very briefly italian in its first brief revival, then it came back to France. Currently it's german designed and french made.
Alsace is NOT German speaking. This is a local dialect indeed close to German, but it is definitely not German (I thought my mother who speaks this local dialect would help me to learn German and this has been a terrible mistake).Moslheim was historically German between 1871 and 1919 and is German-speaking.
What parts exactly are French made? The engines and AWD system are German and the transmissions are British. It's French in the same way that an iPhone is Chinese.

Well, sometimes Wikipedia can be wrong...
I thought Alsations just barked.Well, sometimes Wikipedia can be wrong...
In Alsace, Alsatian dialect is spoken, and I don't think Molsheim will be a standalone exception speaking German within Alsace (had it been next to the border, why not, but it is inland). And this dialect, while close to German, is not German, I know it for sure from personnal experience !
This being said, let...

But either way, close to German is certainly not French.
Lighten up, I'm just joking. 'Alsation' is also a breed of dog.That's starting to be annoying and disrespectful ! Last time I answer, you are a lost cause.
