DANIEL MARCELLO, CO-FOUNDER
I grew up in a big Italian family in New York, studied mechanical engineering, and played college football with my best friend and now co-founder, Preston. Cars and racing have always been my passion, with Formula 1 as my lifelong obsession, I love the science, precision, and brilliance behind it.
Today, I’m a project engineer in the natural gas industry, leading high-stakes projects that sharpen my leadership, problem-solving, and ability to perform under pressure. I’m also driven by travel and global connections, which fuels my mission to bridge American talent with European motorsport.
I’m relentlessly curious, competitive, and determined to build Transatlantic Racing Network into the first true pipeline for U.S. drivers to reach European racing and F1, while inspiring a new generation of Americans to fall in love with the sport.

Although I’ve always loved cars, Dan introduced me to Formula 1 and sparked my passion for the sport’s engineering, precision, and innovation.
Today, I work as a nuclear engineer in the national defense industry, where I lead operations that continuously strengthen my problem-solving, leadership, and communication skills.
Through Transatlantic Racing Network, my mission is to help create a pathway for US drivers to reach European racing and F1, while inspiring the next generation to discover the sport and pursue ambitious goals. no matter how unconventional the journey.
