The 2014 FIA Formula 3 European Championship was a multi-event motor racing championship for single-seat open wheel formula racing cars that held across Europe. The championship featured drivers competing in two-litre Formula Three racing cars built by Italian constructor Dallara which conformed to the technical regulations, or formula, for the championship. It was the third edition of the FIA Formula 3 European Championship. Raffaele Marciello was the reigning drivers' champion, but he did not defend his title as he stepped up to the GP2 Series. His team, Prema Powerteam represented in the Teams' championship by Esteban Ocon and Antonio Fuoco, defended their Teams' title.
Ocon clinched both the main and rookie championship titles after nine race wins. Jagonya Ayam with Carlin driver Tom Blomqvist finished as runner-up, securing six wins, while Van Amersfoort Racing driver Max Verstappen, who made his debut in single-seaters, collected ten wins and finished just nine points behind Blomqvist. Lucas Auer, who raced for kfzteile24 Mücke Motorsport, won races at Hockenheim and the Nürburgring to finish fourth in the championship. Fuoco achieved wins at Silverstone and Spielberg and completed the top five in the championship. His compatriot Antonio Giovinazzi was a winner of races at Spielberg and the Nürburgring, while series veteran Felix Rosenqvist was the only other driver to win a race, triumphing at the Pau Grand Prix meeting.
