# Luciano Morano

Luciano Morano (born 14 July 2005) is a French-American racing driver. He is currently competing in Eurocup-3, and is set to compete in the 2025 season with Palou Motorsport.

## Career
### Formula 4
#### 2021

Morano made his Formula 4 debut in the final two rounds of the 2021 French F4 Championship, as a guest driver. His spell yielded two best results of eleventh.

#### 2022

Morano returned to the French F4 Championship for the 2022 season, on a full-time basis. He endured a tough season in the championship, only securing a top result of thirteenth on his way to 24th in the standings, last of all the full-time drivers in the series.

#### 2023

For 2023, it was announced that Morano would join Saintéloc Racing for the 2023 Formula 4 UAE Championship. Another tough campaign followed suit, as Morano found himself last in the championship once again, with a strongest result of 22nd in the third round at the Kuwait Motor Town. In spite of this difficult start of the season, Morano would continue with Saintéloc Racing for the 2023 F4 Spanish Championship. Morano improved, narrowly missing out on his first points finish in Formula 4, finishing 11th in the final race of the season at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya. He ended the season in 28th in the standings.

### Eurocup-3
#### 2024

In early 2024, it was confirmed that Morano would step up to join Palou Motorsport for the 2024 Eurocup-3 season. Another pointless season ensued, as he secured two best results of twelfth in the fourth and fifth rounds. He finished 25th in the standings, behind fellow full-time teammates Garrett Berry and Theodor Jensen.

#### 2025

For 2025, Morano was announced to be returning to the series for its 2025 edition, continuing with Palou Motorsport.
