José Dolhem was a French racing driver whose career on record comprises a single Formula 1 start in 1974. Driving for Surtees, he failed to score a point, finishing 21st in his only Grand Prix outing. His Racer Rating of 3,397 places him in the semi-professional band; he competed at a level where wins came in pro-am and one-make classes, typical of paid drivers outside the top championships of their era. The lack of further single-seater racing records suggests his Formula 1 appearance was an isolated venture rather than the foundation for an ongoing career at that level.[1]
Dolhem remains notable as the half-brother of Didier Pironi, who would go on to establish himself as a Formula 1 driver of considerably higher standing. Beyond his Formula 1 entry, no other racing record survives in this database. His single Grand Prix, in an era when grid sizes were larger and opportunities for less-prominent drivers more common than they would become, represents the extent of his documented activity in international racing.[2]
