Tony Fassina is an Italian former rally driver, multiple Italian and European rally champion in the 1970s and 1980s.

Winner of the 1979 Sanremo Rally in a Lancia Stratos (navigator Mauro Mannini) and a European championship in 1982 in an Opel Ascona 400 paired with Rudy Dal Pozzo.

From 1976 to 1981 he participated in five editions of the Rally d'Italia (always valid for the World Rally Championship and always coinciding with the Sanremo Rally), collecting one victory (1979), two thirds (1977 and 1981), one 4th place (1976) and one retirement (1980).[1]
