Gordini was a French sports car manufacturer. The firm was founded by Amédée Gordini nicknamed "Le Sorcier" (The Sorcerer).
At the beginning Gordini had close ties with Simca whose founder Henri Pigozzi shared Italian origins with Amédée Gordini.
Gordini competed in Formula One from 1950 to 1956.
Later Gordini worked with Renault as an engine tuner and finally sold his firm to Renault.
On Nov. 10th 2009, Renault announced the revival of the Gordini name for a line of exclusive hot hatches.
