Valerio Colotti (19 April 1925 – 19 January 2008) was an Italian automotive engineer, known for his early work with Ferrari and Maserati chassis and transmission systems. Born in Modena, Colotti joined Ferrari in 1948, working under Aurelio Lampredi, followed by employment with Maserati (1953–1957), until the company dropped factory works racing. In 1958 he started his own company, known as Tec-Mec (Studio Tecnica Meccanica). Tec-Mec, assisted by Giorgio Scarlatti, built the tipo F/415 Formula One car, mostly based on the Maserati 250F, in which Colotti had been deeply involved. The car raced only at the 1959 USA Grand Prix, where driver Fritz d'Orey was forced to retire after qualifying 17th. Colotti collaborated also with Behra-Porsche (1959), Stirling Moss's Cooper T51 and Scirocco-Powe

Nel 1958 fondò una propria impresa, la Tec-Mec (Studio Tecnica Meccanica). La Tec-Mec, con l'ausilio di Giorgio Scarlatti tentò con la “tipo F/415” la partecipazione alla Formula 1. La vettura era basata sulla Maserati 250F, modello a cui lavorò Colotti durante la sua permanenza alla Casa del tridente. Ci fu una collaborazione con la (1959) e con Stirling Moss. Quest'ultimo ebbe diversi problemi con la sua Cooper T51, preparata da Colotti, per problemi al cambio. La cooperazione di Colotti con Alf Francis portò ai sistemi Colotti-Francis. Con Wolfgang von Trips progettò la Trips-Colotti-Auto Union (TCA), e più tardi le loro trasmissioni furono utilizzate nel 1967 sull'Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale. e nei primo anni '70 sulle Fiat 124 Abarth Rally ufficiali. La compagnia è oggi conosciuta come “Colotti Trasmissioni” ed è guidata dai figli di Colotti, Marco e Paolo. (it)
