-'''Arzani-Volpini''' (also known as '''Scuderia Volpini''') was an [[Italy|Italian]] [[Formula One]] constructor, established by [[Gianpaolo Volpini]] and engine-builder [[Egidio Arzani]].
-Volpini was initially involved in the lower classes of [[Formula racing]], such as [[Formula Junior]] and [[Formula Three]]. Volpini joined forces with Arzani in [[1954]], hoping to enter the Formula One World Championship. To this end, the team purchased the chassis of the [[1950 Formula One season|1950]] [[Scuderia Milano]]-[[Maserati]] for the [[1955 Formula One season]]. The team subsequently improved the engine and the bodywork of the car. It was entered in the [[1955 Valentino Grand Prix]] for [[Mario Alborghetti]], but it could not be constructed in time. The team made its debut in the [[1955 Grand Prix de Pau]], where Alborghetti suffered a fatal crash.
-The team contested only one Formula One World Championship Grand Prix, the [[1955 Italian Grand Prix]]. Driver [[Luigi Piotti]] drove the car, but did not start the race due to a problem with his [[Maserati 2.5 L6]] engine. The team did not return to Formula One afterwards.
-Instead, they continued to make cars for [[Formula Junior]] and [[Formula Three]]. One of the customers was [[Lorenzo Bandini]].
