Career
Formula Azzurra
After a six-year karting career, de Marco moved up to the Formula Azzurra championship with the Durango team in 2006, and was mightily impressive in his one and only Azzurra campaign. He also competed in the Formula Renault 2.0 Italia Winter Series, finishing joint ninth in the championship with Daniel Zampieri. Formula Three
After only one year at a junior single-seater level, de Marco moved up to the Italian Formula Three Championship with Lucidi Motors, and finished the 2007 season with six podiums and a pole position at Vallelunga.
He ended up sixth in the championship, but was outperformed by team-mate Paolo Maria Nocera, who would go on to lift the title.
A change to the Spanish Formula Three Championship for 2008 was hoped to see de Marco progress and earn more experience. Formula Two
Nicola drove in the relaunched FIA Formula Two Championship in 2009, driving car number 10 in the series.
He finished in tenth position, with his best result coming in the final race at Circuit de Catalunya, where he finished second to Andy Soucek. He will return to the series in 2010.
