Renzo Zorzi (born December 12, 1946, near Turin) is a former racing driver from Italy who participated in 7 Formula One Grands Prix between 1975 and 1977.
Between odd races for Williams in Formula One, Zorzi raced in Formula 3. After his 1977 season with Shadow came to a premature end due to financial problems, he later raced in the Aurora AFX F1 series, driving an Arrows.
Zorzi was indirectly involved in a horrific accident during the 1977 South African Grand Prix, when he retired his car with an engine failure, which resulted in a small fire. Despite Zorzi dealing with the fire with his on-board extinguisher, two fire marshals ran across the track and one, Jansen Van Vuuren, was struck and killed by the car of Zorzi's team-mate Tom Pryce, who was also killed.
Zorzi now runs a Pirelli driving school in southern Italy.
