Alessandro Famularo is a Venezuelan racing driver who made a brief but notable appearance in the FIA Formula 3 Championship. Trained at one point by Juan Pablo Montoya, he had raced sparingly in the years before his F3 cameo, his most recent prior single-seater outing having been three races in the 2021 Formula Regional European Championship.

Famularo made his FIA Formula 3 debut at the 2022 season finale at Monza, joining Charouz Racing System for the weekend as a replacement for David Schumacher, who had DTM commitments. He was the eighth driver Charouz fielded across that turbulent season. After roughly 1.3 years away from racing he had to reacclimatise quickly; he qualified 26th and finished 23rd in both Monza races, then took part in the post-season test at Jerez. He ended the championship 39th overall, second from last.
Famularo's F3 record is that of a one-weekend stand-in, but the appearance was significant in carrying Venezuelan representation onto the modern junior single-seater ladder.
