Amato Ferrari (born 18 April 1966) is an Italian former racing driver and team owner of AF Corse.
After competing in touring car events in Italy and Great Britain, Ferrari retired from racing in 1994 at the age of 28 and transitioned into a management role, founding his own team AF Corse. As its owner and team principal, he has achieved numerous regional and international championships, including the FIA GT Championship and FIA World Endurance Championship, as well as multiple class and overall wins at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Though he shares the same surname and has been associated with Ferrari for much of his managerial career, he is not related to the family of Enzo Ferrari or the company.
