Dolhem dabbled with racing in 1964 at the wheel of a Lotus Seven, but it was not until he had completed his university studies in engineering and economics in 1969 that he returned to the sport, having won the prized Volant Shell award.

He was regarded as something of a playboy racer in his early days. Certainly his 1972 Formula 2 season with a March was undistinguished and in his only F2 race the following year, the Rouen GP, where he drove for Team Surtees, he crashed on the warm-up lap after finishing third in his qualifying heat.

No doubt bringing much-needed finance, he raced for Surtees in both Grands Prix and Formula 2 in 1974, but his career was then interrupted by a neck injury sustained while skiing early in 1975. José continued to race in F2 -firstly with Fred Opert's Chevron in 1976 and later with Kauhsen and ACS cars - on and off without success until 1979. The half-brother of the late Didier Pironi, Dolhem lost his life in a private plane crash in April 1988.
