Rintaro Sato is an entry-level professional racing single-seaters solo, in fields that mix amateur and semi-professional entrants with graded professionals. He currently drives for B-Max Engineering in Super Formula Lights, part of the Honda Formula Dream Project, after a 2025 season in French F4.[1]
His French F4 season produced a win and three podiums from thirteen starts, racing against Alexandre Munoz, that year's champion, to whom he usually finished behind, and Rayan Caretti, an entry-level professional with a long run of French F4 starts, against whom the results were closely matched. In Super Formula Lights he has made six starts so far in 2026 and sits seventh in the standings with rounds still to come.[2]
The field around him includes Kazuhisa Urabe, an FIA Silver-graded professional with starts in both Super Formula Lights and Super GT, and Tokiya Suzuki, a Super GT and Super Formula Lights professional; Sato has finished ahead of Urabe twice and Suzuki once. At the end of his 2025 French F4 season, a penalty cost him a podium at the Macau street circuit, where he dropped to eleventh for the Sunday race.
