The French company, Mécanique Aviation Traction, was specialized in aeronautics and weaponry, started an automobile department in the 1960s and joined the field of Motorsports in the late ’60s. Starting from the 24-hour race, then the Formula races and at last joined the F1 races in 1967, then there was the MS120 for the 1970 F1 season.
