Paolo Zuccarelli (occasionally anglicized as Paul, 24 August 1886 – 19 June 1913) was an Italian racing driver.[1] Zuccarelli graduated in engineering in Brescia and took on racing shortly afterwards. In 1910 he moved to France. He was among the first Europe-based racers to travel to the U.S. in 1913 to compete in the Indianapolis 500. Zuccarelli was killed while testing a car prior to the 1913 French Grand Prix at Amiens.
