Cesare Perdisa (21 October 1932 – 10 May 1998) was an Italian racing driver and agricultural journalist, who competed in Formula One at eight Grands Prix from 1955 and 1957.
Born and raised in Bologna, Perdisa was the son of Luigi Perdisa, an agronomist and faculty dean from the University of Bologna, and editor of local agricultural magazine Terra e Vita.[a] Perdisa participated in eight Formula One Grands Prix, debuting at the 1955 Monaco Grand Prix with Maserati, finishing third alongside Jean Behra. He achieved a further podium with Maserati at the 1956 Belgian Grand Prix alongside Stirling Moss. He competed for Ferrari at the 1957 Argentine Grand Prix, driving a Lancia D50.
Upon retiring from motor racing, Perdisa took over Terra e Vita alongside his brother Sergio, published by Rizzoli until its sale.
