Francisco Sacco Landi, better known as Chico Landi (July 14, 1907–June 7, 1989) was a racing driver from São Paulo, Brazil. He participated in 6 Formula One World Championship Grands Prix, debuting on September 16, 1951. He scored a total of 1.5 championship points, awarded for his 4th place finish in the 1956 Argentine Grand Prix, a drive he shared with Gerino Gerini.

Landi was the first Brazilian driver to drive a Ferrari in a Formula One race, albeit not for the works team, and he drove one to victory at the Bari Grand Prix in 1948.
