A Veritas wins its first race in front of 300,000 fascinated spectators in the first race after the Second World War. All in all, the successful racing car wins 13 German Championships and takes 29 first places within just a few years.

From 1951, the ‘Veritas-Nürburgring’ is made in the pits of the Nürburgring racetrack.

In the same year, the unparalleled development of the racing team iscrowned by the participation of a Veritas Meteor in the Swiss Formula 1 Grand Prix: Which makes the Veritas the first German Formula 1 racing car ever. Even today, the fascination exercised by this legendary racing car is as powerful as ever.

With the RS III, Veritas is launching the next generation – the continuation of a success story that simultaneously heralds the beginning of a new era.

The Veritas RS III, the modern version of the first German Formula 1 racing car, leaves you in no doubt about its heritage thanks to its impressive design, perfect engineering and incomparable responses.

After all, the 600 PS of the V10* engine need to be mastered – without the invisible help of today’s otherwise omnipresent electronic aids, such as anti-skid brakes, traction control and power brakes.

The Veritas RS III recreates the pure feeling and fascination of an authentic racing car: true race feeling.
