Giampaolo Dallara

Giampaolo Dallara founded “Dallara Automobili da Competizione” in 1972 in his hometown in Italy, building cars for F1 and F3. He began his career as an engineer at Ferrari, followed by key roles at Maserati, Lamborghini, and Williams De Tomaso. He used that experience to launch his company, which for more than 50 years has developed itself in the business of designing, manufacturing, and supporting some of the world’s most competitive racecars with particular focus on both safety and performance. The company started producing IndyCars in 1997 and has been the sole chassis supplier since 2008. In 2012, Dallara expanded its U.S. operations by opening the Dallara Experience Hub in Speedway, Indiana, where the company produces and assembles chassis for a variety of racing series.
