Michela Cerruti (born 18 February 1987) is a retired Italian racing competitor.

Career

Hailing from Rome, Cerruti pursued Psychology studies at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore located in Milan. Her entry into motorsport was initiated by her father, Aldo 'Baronio' Cerruti, who signed her up for a defensive driving course led by Mario Ferraris, son of Romeo Ferraris, a renowned race car engineer and team owner. Noticing her natural talent for speed and vehicle handling, Ferraris persuaded her father to allow her to participate in competitive racing.

Her first appearance was in the 2008 Italian Touring Endurance Championship (CITE), where she drove an Alfa Romeo 147 alongside Mario Ferraris, achieving a third-place finish in their class. The following year, she continued competing in CITE, this time behind the wheel of an Abarth 500.

In 2010, Cerruti stepped up to the Superstars Series, piloting a Mercedes C63 AMG for Romeo Ferraris. Concurrently, she took part in the Italian GT Championship driving a Ferrari F430 for the same outfit.

She remained with the Superstars Series in 2011 and showcased remarkable performance at Monza by leading practice sessions, securing second place in the opening race, and winning the subsequent race, which propelled her to the top of the championship standings.

Cerruti joined Trulli GP during the inaugural season of Formula E in 2014. She participated in four events, with her best result being twelfth place before Vitantonio Liuzzi took over her seat.

After several years competing in TCR events, she retired from active racing in 2017 to focus on starting a family. In 2022, she was named team principal at Romeo Ferraris.
