Loic Serra Appointed Ferrari Chassis Director

Ferrari has officially appointed Loic Serra as its new technical director for chassis, effective October 1, following the departure of Enrico Cardile to Aston Martin. Serra, who has been the performance director at Mercedes since 2018, was initially set to join as head of chassis performance engineering but will now take on the more senior role. He will report directly to team principal Frederic Vasseur and will oversee multiple departments including project engineering, vehicle performance, aerodynamics, and track engineering. This restructuring comes after Vasseur briefly filled the role temporarily after Cardile's exit. Serra's move to Ferrari coincides with the anticipated arrival of Lewis Hamilton at the team in 2025, marking a reunion after their time together at Mercedes. The appointment follows Ferrari's interest in signing Adrian Newey, which ultimately did not materialize.
