Antonio Maria Giovinazzi (Italian pronunciation: [anˈtɔːnjo dʒoviˈnattsi]; born 14 December 1993) is an Italian racing driver, currently competing in the FIA World Endurance Championship for Ferrari AF Corse.[1][2] Giovinazzi competed in Formula One from 2017 to 2021. In endurance racing, Giovinazzi won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2023 with Ferrari.
Graduating from karting to junior formulae in 2012, Giovinazzi won his first championship at the 2012 Formula Pilota China with Eurasia Motorsport. After finishing as runner-up in the 2013 British Formula 3 Championship, Giovinazzi moved to the FIA Formula 3 European Championship in 2014, finishing as runner-up to Felix Rosenqvist the following season. He also won the 2015 Masters of Formula 3. Giovinazzi then progressed to the GP2 Series in 2016, finishing as runner-up to Pierre Gasly with Prema Racing.
A reserve driver for Sauber, Ferrari and Haas in 2017, Giovinazzi made his Formula One debut for the former at the Australian Grand Prix, replacing an injured Pascal Wehrlein for the opening two rounds of the season. Following another season as a reserve driver for Sauber and Ferrari in 2018, Giovinazzi signed for Sauber—re-branded as Alfa Romeo—as a full-time driver for the 2019 season. He scored his maiden points finish at the Austrian Grand Prix, with a career-best fifth at the Brazilian Grand Prix. Giovinazzi remained at Alfa Romeo for the 2020 season, scoring three points finishes throughout the season. Retaining his seat for 2021, he scored further points in Monaco and Saudi Arabia, before being dropped by Alfa Romeo at the conclusion of the season. Giovinazzi has since remained a reserve driver for Ferrari, a role he has held continuously since 2017.
Outside of Formula One, Giovinazzi has competed in the 2021–22 Formula E World Championship with Dragon / Penske and in the FIA World Endurance Championship since 2016. Joining the Ferrari 499P Hypercar project in its inaugural 2023 season, Giovinazzi won the 24 Hours of Le Mans alongside James Calado and Alessandro Pier Guidi. Giovinazzi has also competed in the Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters, the Asian Le Mans Series and the European Le Mans Series.
