Enrico gualtieri

Frenchman Loic Serra: Scuderia Ferrari have appointed Frenchman Loic Serra as chassis technical director, the Formula One team announced on Thursday. The 52-year-old will replace Enrico Cardile, who joined Aston Martin as chief technical officer in June earlier this year.

Ferrari said that Serra will assume his role on October 1. Enrico Gualtieri will continue as power-unit technical director. Serra was linked up with the BMW Sauber team from 2006 to 2009 before joining Mercedes after BMW withdrew from Formula 1. He went on to become Mercedes' performance director in 2019.

Earlier, Ferrari announced that Serra would join the team as head of chassis performance engineering. However, the reassessment of the team's technical structure by boss Frederic Vasseur following Cardile's departure led to his promotion to chassis technical director.
