Career
His first serious drive came in 2002 when he drove the Italian Alfa 147 Cup. From 2003, he spent the next three years competing in the European Alfa 147 Challenge. In 2006 he drove in the FIA World Touring Carolina Championship with an independent SEAT Leon.
The Seat Sport Italia only managed to fund him and team mate Roberto Colciago for the first four rounds.
He returned to the WTCC in 2007 for just two rounds at Brno with Proteam Motorsport in a Bayerische Motoren Werke 320si. In 2008 he drove in the Spanish SEAT Leon Supercopa and the new SEAT León Eurocup.
