Luigi Villoresi (born 16 May 1909 in Milan, died 24 August 1997 in Modena) was an Italian racing driver who competed in Formula 1 from 1950 onwards. He competed for a variety of teams without much success, including stints at Ferrari, Gordini, Kurtis Kraft, Ferrari America and Leader, although he had most success with Asso di Fiori, scoring his only points and podium at Sebring in 1954, and winning the non-championship Syracuse Grand Prix that same year. In 1955, he signed with the fledgling Assasti Millanti outfit, which only managed one appearance that year. He subsequently agreed to enter the 1956 Belgian Grand Prix with Scuderia Centro Sud, but failed to start. He retired from motor racing in 1958, aged 49.
