Formula Three

During the 2011 season, Markelov made his Formula Three debut, with Motopark, in the Hockenheimring round of the Formula 3 Euro Series.[4]

Markelov and Motopark – now under the Lotus moniker – elected to compete in the German Formula Three Championship in 2012.[5] He finished seventh in the standings, scoring three podiums, including sprint-race wins at Lausitz and Hockenheim.[6]
