In 2007, Chinosi stepped up to the ATS Formel 3 Cup with the Ombra Racing team. He finished sixth in the standings after taking four podium places. Also he appeared as a guest driver at Monza in British Formula 3. Chinosi remained in the series for 2008 with Ombra Racing. He finished fifth in the standings with two wins at Hockenheim[4] and the Nürburgring.[5] Again, he was a guest driver at Monza in British Formula 3 where he gained a pole position.[6]

Chinosi moved to Prema Powerteam and the Formula 3 Euro Series in 2009[7] but left the series after the Zandvoort round. During the same season he finished eleventh in the 2009 Masters of Formula 3 at Zandvoort.
