Veritas RS

The Veritas RS was a Veritas sports car based on the BMW 328 that also raced in Formula One. It raced in five World Championship Grands Prix; the 1952 Swiss Grand Prix, the 1952 Belgian Grand Prix, the 1952 German Grand Prix, the 1953 Belgian Grand Prix, and the 1953 German Grand Prix. Its best result in Formula One racing was a 7th-place finish at the 1952 German Grand Prix, being driven by Fritz Riess.

History
In 1949, work was completed on the racing sports car based on the BMW 328, with the engine increased to 125 hp (on some specimens the maximum power even reached 135 hp). However, 1949 was also the year in which the Veritas Komet coupé, a road version of the RS, was launched. And furthermore, again in 1949, Veritas was transferred again, this time to Muggensturm, where it abandoned the 2-litre BMW of the 328 to instead use a 2 L engine (to be precise, 1998 cm³), but made by Heinkel. There were 200 orders for motorized Veritas, but poor financial management of the company resulted in 1950, at the end of series car production.
