He initially competed during the 1950s in a Formula 2BMW-engined Jicey with which he finished third in the Grand Prix des Frontières at Chimay. In 1953 he raced for the Simca-Gordini team and finished fifth at the same track. He entered the same car (a 1.5-litre 4 cylinder Gordini type 15)[1] in the Belgian Grand Prix but retired after only three laps with engine failure.[1] The following year he raced a Gordini with nothing more than a fourth position at Rouen. After this he faded from single-seater racing.
