Fabrizio Crestani (born on 17 December 1987) is a professional racing driver from Italy.

Career

Crestani began his motorsport journey in karting until 2005, after which he progressed to compete in the Formula Junior 1600 Italia series. Driving for PSR Motorsport, he secured one victory and concluded the season in fourth place. He made his initial appearance in the Italian Formula Three Championship at Misano with Corbetta Competizioni, finishing the event 13th overall.

In 2006, Crestani committed to a full season in Italian F3 with Corbetta Competizioni. During this campaign, he earned pole position at Vallelunga and achieved five podium finishes, ultimately ranking fifth in the championship standings. Additionally, he took part in the British Formula 3 Invitational Class race at Mugello but did not score points.

The following year, 2007, saw Crestani continue in Italian Formula Three. He claimed two poles at Misano and won three races, including a double victory at Mugello and another win at Vallelunga, maintaining his fifth-place position in the overall championship.

Crestani transitioned to Euroseries 3000 in 2008 with GP Racing, where he finished fifth overall. His victories included one at Mugello and a pair of wins at Magione. Simultaneously, he competed in the Italian Formula 3000 series and participated selectively in International Formula Master rounds, capturing a win at Pau.

Midway through the 2008–09 GP2 Asia Series season, Crestani joined Ocean Racing Technology—a team formed after Tiago Monteiro acquired BCN Competición. Despite competing in nine races, he did not score points and ended the season 28th. He returned to Euroseries 3000 during 2009 with TP Formula and Emmebi Motorsport, where six podium finishes helped him secure fourth place overall.

In 2010, Crestani's racing schedule included partial campaigns in Auto GP with DAMS and Trident teams. Later that year, he replaced Giacomo Ricci at David Price Racing for the GP2 Series. Facing sponsorship difficulties, Crestani raced full-time in Auto GP during 2011 for Lazarus alongside teammate Fabio Onidi, finishing fourth in the championship.

He remained with Lazarus as they entered the GP2 Series in 2012, partnering with Giancarlo Serenelli.

After a hiatus from professional racing, Crestani returned in 2023 to compete in the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup with GRT Grasser Racing Team. His co-drivers for this campaign were Ricky Capo and Sam Neary.
