'''Giovanni Bracco''' (born 6 June 1908 in Biella, died 6 August 1968 in Biella) was an Italian racing driver. At first a privateer, he signed for Ferrari in 1950. After competing in the non-championship San Remo Grand Prix, the Scuderia entered Bracco for the [[1950 Italian Grand Prix]], but his entry was ultimately abandonned. He later converted to sports cars, still with Ferrari, winning the 1952 Mille Miglia.
