The preliminary video announcing the new model shows the brand logo and a fragment of the black radiator grille with the number 9. Most likely, this is a hint at the famous Bentley Team Blower No. 9, which took part in the 24 Hours of Le Mans race in 1930.
This legendary car is unofficially called "the most famous Bentley in the world." Under its hood is a 4.4-liter turbocharged engine. The car was driven by pilot Henry Birkin. In 1930, Team Blower No. 9 failed to win the 24 Hours of Le Mans, losing to another Bentley model equipped with a 6.6-liter engine.
