Ronnie Quintarelli met his first motorsports at age 6 when his father gave him a small go-kart.
He participated in his first race in 1990 as soon as he turned 10 years old because his age was ineligible for entry.
He had built up his career in go-kart races for 9 years since then, winning many national and international championships.
In 2000, Quintarelli made his Formula debut at the Italian Formula Renault 2000 and had competed many races based in Europe until 2002.
Then he moved to Japan to compete in Japanese Formula3 Championship in 2003, and the next year in 2004, he became the series champion.
He started to compete in SUPER GT in 2005 and in Formula NIPPON from the middle of 2005 season.
Quintarelli won his first victory for Formula NIPPON at the 4th round in 2007, that was his 3rd year of Formula Nippon career.
In 2008, he competed again in Formula Nippon and Super GT, and he had a first victory for Super GT Round.7 in Motegi by new model NISSAN GT-R.
Now his career has been based on Japan as a racing driver and he has also worked on Motorsport promotion and encouraging the young talented drivers.
