Loïc Serra (born 30 March 1972) is a French Formula One engineer and Chassis Technical Director of Scuderia Ferrari HP.

Career Serra studied at Arts et Métiers ParisTech in Aix-en-Provence and Paris, specialising in Mechanical Engineering. After graduating from university, Serra started his career in motorsport with Michelin, working as a quality engineer in Bad Kreuznach, Germany, before moving to the company's main Research and Development centre in Clermont-Ferrand, France.

This suspension system was proposed to the Michelin customer teams in Formula One and formed Serra's first encounter with the series.

As Serra wished to stay in Formula One, he joined the BMW Sauber F1 Team to become the Head of Vehicle Performance for the Swiss team. After BMW's withdrawal from Formula One, Serra decided to seek a new challenge so he joined the new Mercedes works team. In 2023, it became public that he will join Scuderia Ferrari in 2025. Ferrari confirmed the news in May 2024, announcing that Serra would join the team beginning October 2024 as the team's Chassis Technical Director.
