Formula 4 UAE

After competing in other lower formulas, Nannini had the most success in the 2019 Formula 4 UAE Championship where he won 7 races and won the title by 48 points over Joshua Dürksen.

Formula 3

In his second year of single-seater racing, Nannini moved up to the FIA Formula 3 Championship with Jenzer Motorsport.[2] Nannini struggled throughout the first half of the season, claiming his first point score in Round 6 in Barcelona. He finished in 10th in the first race, which gave him reverse-grid pole.[3] Nannini then managed to claim his first and only podium with a 3rd place in the second race of the weekend.[4] Nannini failed to score any points for the rest of the season and finished 18th overall in the championship with 11 points.
