In 2010, Marciello graduated to single-seaters, racing in the newly–launched Formula Abarth series in Italy for JD Motorsport. He won opening race at Misano and race at Varano and amassed another two podiums it brought him third place in standings.[1] Also he and fellow Formula Abarth champion Brandon Maïsano become members of the Ferrari Driver Academy.[2]

In 2012 Marciello continued his collaboration with Prema Powerteam into Formula 3 Euro Series.[4] and the revived FIA European Formula Three Championship. In FIA F3 he finished 2nd in the championship, with nine podiums including seven wins. In Euro Series he finished 3rd with ten podiums and six wins. In both championships he scored more wins than anybody else.
He remained in F3 for 2013, and emerged as a pre-season favourite following his impressive results in the previous year and dominant performances in pre-season testing.[5]
Toyota Racing Series
