Timeline

1910

Auguste Veuillet (3 July 1910 – 10 October 1980), known as Toto Veuillet, was a French racing driver and founder of Sonauto, France's first importer of Porsche cars and Yamaha motorcycles.

He drove Porsche's first Le Mans entry and took their first two class wins along with Edmond Mouche.

1945

Veuillet drove an MG to class victory in the 1945 Coupe de Paris at Bois de Boulogne.

1947

Veuillet founded the company Saône-Auto (later becoming Sonauto) in July 1947, selling luxury vehicles from a showroom on Rue de la Boétie in Paris.

1948

He later purchased a Delage D6 three-litre and raced it at the 1948 Paris Grand Prix at Montlhéry, but did not finish.

He raced the car in the 1948 Grand Prix des Frontières but retired after spinning and damaging his radiator.

He entered the car to the 24 Hours of Spa, where he won his class alongside Maurice Varet.

The pair then entered the 12 Hours of Paris at Montlhéry but did not finish.

1949

In 1949, Veuillet and Edmond Mouche made their first attempt at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in Veuillet's Delage.

The pair ran in third position for most of the race, only to retire with an engine fire in the closing hours.

The same year, Veuillet placed fourth in class in the Comminges Grand Prix, and finished third and second in two races in Saarbrücken.

1950

Veuillet took his Delage to the 1950 Paris Grand Prix but retired with suspension failure on the second lap.

He entered Le Mans in a Delahaye, but rolled it during practice the day before the race.

It was repaired overnight but would not start, owing to a flat battery.

Later that year he raced his Delage at Rouen, placing ninth overall.

1951

In 1951, Veuillet and his company Sonauto helped Porsche make their first entry to Le Mans with two 356 SL Coupes.

The sister car of Rudolf Sauerwein and Robert Brunet crashed out in practice, but Veuillet and Mouche came through to win the S1.1 class, giving Porsche their first class win on their first attempt.

Veuillet later drove a 356 in the Coupes du Salon at Montlhéry, winning the GT1.5 race.

1952

In 1952, Veuillet won the Circuit International de Vitesse in Bordeaux behind the wheel of a 356, before returning with Mouche to Le Mans and repeating their S1.1 class victory.

He also competed in a 100-mile race for Porsche 356s at the Nürburgring supporting that year's German Grand Prix, but his result is unknown.

1955

Veuillet's and Olivier's greatest outright win was the 1955 Bol d'Or at Montlhéry, in what would be the final running of the 24-hour event.

The circuit was notoriously demanding on a car, but the pair praised each other's calm and measured approach to such a long and challenging race.

They returned to the 12 Hours of Hyères and repeated their class victory.

Olivier entered him for Le Mans in one of his privateer Porsches, but he was again offered a works drive.
