Career
Karting
Delétraz began karting in his native Switzerland in 2008, winning the Vega Trofeo Super Mini class the following year.[2] Third-place finishes followed in the KF3 Bridgestone Cup Switzerland and Vega Trofeo Junior categories in 2010 before winning the latter championship in 2011.[3]
Formula BMW Talent Cup
Delétraz began his single-seater career in September 2012, racing in the Grand Final of the Formula BMW Talent Cup season, held at Motorsport Arena Oschersleben in Germany. He started each of the three races from Pole position, winning the second race of the event.[4] In the final race of the weekend, Delétraz collided with fellow Swiss driver Ralph Boschung with both drivers retiring from the race. He was subsequently excluded from the event following an incident in the pit lane after the race.[5]
Formula Renault 2.0
Delétraz graduated to Formula Renault for 2013, racing in the Formula Renault 2.0 NEC championship with Josef Kaufmann Racing.[6] He finished the season in 19th place in the championship,[7] with a best race result of fifth coming in the second race of the Silverstone meeting.
Delétraz continued with the team for a second FR2.0 NEC season in 2014.[8] After winning the opening race of the season at Monza,[9] he took a further four podium positions to finish runner-up in the championship, sixteen points behind Fortec Motorsports Ben Barnicoat.[10] During the year, Delétraz also made his debut in the Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 championship, taking part in the rounds at Spa-Francorchamps, Nürburgring and Paul Ricard as a guest driver.[11]
In 2015, Delétraz stayed with Josef Kaufmann Racing for a third season, racing a dual campaign in both Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 and Formula Renault 2.0 NEC.[12] He currently leads the championship in both series, achieving three race wins in the former and four victories in the latter so far.[13][14]
In April 2015, Delétraz was announced as one of the four drivers selected to join the BMW Motorsport Junior Programme for 2015. As part of the initiative, he is due to contest three races of the Veranstaltergemeinschaft Langstreckenpokal Nürburgring series (VLN) for the manufacturer.[15]
Formula Renault 3.5 Series/Formula V8 3.5
Delétraz made his debut in the Formula Renault 3.5 Series at the fifth round of the 2015 season at the Red Bull Ring, driving for the returning Comtec Racing team.[16] He graduated to the series full time with Fortec in 2016, finishing runner-up in the standings.
GP2 Series
On 18 November 2016, it was announced that Delétraz would make his debut in the final round of the 2016 season with Carlin.[17] He finished twenty sixth in the overall standings with no points.
FIA Formula 2 Championship
In December 2016, after partaking in post-season testing with them, Delétraz signed to race full-time with Racing Engineering in 2017 alongside Gustav Malja.[18]
Formula One
In February 2016, Deletraz was confirmed as a member of Renault's young driver program.
In November 2018, it was confirmed that Delétraz would make his Formula One test debut with Haas F1 Team at the end-of-year Pirelli tyre test in Abu Dhabi.[19]
