Nicola Materazzi was an Italian mechanical engineer and one of Italy's leading turbo specialists. He co-developed the Ferrari 288 GTO and the Ferrari F40, among others; for this reason, he is sometimes called "Mr. F40" or the "father of the F40." For the 1980 Ferrari 021 engine, he worked on an improved Comprex system, which was not used, and on the KKK turbocharger. On the Ferrari 126 C (1980–83), he was responsible for the design office and supervised engine development.
