This Monégasque began karting in 1983, scoring many wins before graduating to French F3 in 1989. It was the following year when he began to cause a stir. Armed with a Dallara-Alfa, he took third place in the Monaco F3 race and then won at Pau before his season tailed off, though he still took third in the overall standings. His 1991 campaign was less successful: a broken wrist in the Monaco F3 race hindered his progress, and he also attempted to race his Ralt in both the French and British series.
A move into F3000 in 1992 with Nelson Piquet's well-funded team saw disappointment for all concerned with Beretta making too many mistakes for comfort. But a move to Forti Corse brought immediate reward as he won the 1993 season-opener from pole at Donington. Thereafter he failed to make the podium and slipped down to finish sixth in the championship.
Olivier brought much-needed funds to Larrousse for 1994, and he was certainly not outclassed by his team leader Comas. At Hockenheim he came tantalisingly close to scoring a precious championship point, but one race on his money ran out and a succession of rent-a-drivers were taken on to help the team see out the season.
Since 1996 Beretta has campaigned an ORECA Chrysler Viper with spectacular success. After the heartbreak of losing the GT2 title at the final round in 1997, he made no mistake the following year paired with Pedro Lamy.
The 1999 season saw Olivier and Karl Wendlinger crowned FIA GT champions as the Viper crushed the opposition.
