Carlo Salamano (1891 - 19 January 1969) was an Italian racecar driver. A resident of Turin, in 1923 he drove a FIAT 805 to win the Italian Grand Prix at Monza, the event also serving as the inaugural European Grand Prix; it was the first victory by an automobile equipped with a supercharger in a significant European event. While an official championship had yet to be established, he was considered to be the season champion by historians.
