Enrico Cardile (born 5 April 1975) is an Italian aerodynamicist who is set to commence work as Chief Technical Officer for the Aston Martin Formula One team for the 2025 Season. He previously worked at Scuderia Ferrari, where he was responsible of the Aerodynamics Department and served as the vehicle project manager.

Career

Cardile obtained a degree in aerospace engineering at the University of Pisa in 2002. He spent a further three years at the university collaborating with Ferrari on an aerodynamic innovation project. [1] In 2005, he joined Ferrari on FIA GT Championship-related projects, overseeing aerodynamics. [2] In 2016, he moved across to the Formula One team, working as Head of Aero Development, and was appointed as vehicle project manager in the following year. [3]

In July 2024, Aston Martin announced that Cardile had been recruited as the new Chief Technical Officer, which was last occupied by Andrew Green in 2021, and that he would begin work at Aston Martin in the 2025 Formula 1 Season. [4] By March 2025, Cardile still has yet to begin work at Aston Martin even though Group CEO and Team Principal Andy Cowell claimed that Cardile would join the team in 2025. Subsequently, it emerged that Ferrari were reportedly holding Cardile back with the team requesting for Cardile's gardening leave to be a full year, meaning that Cardile would not be able to start at Aston Martin until July 17.
