He was the nation's joint seat-holder, alongside Hubertus Bahlsen.[10] He competed in all races in the 2008-09 season, scoring pole for the South African feature race and finishing a best of third place in the same race. Team Monaco finished 9th overall with 35 points, however the series collapsed a year later and could not improve on this result. Piccione represented Monaco at the 2009 Race of Champions.[11]

Following the loss of his A1 Grand Prix seat, Piccione joined Hexis AMR in the FIA GT1 Championship.[12] He competed for the team across 2010 and 2011, driving their Aston Martin DBR9. The best result was victory in 2011 at the Yas Marina Circuit.[13]
