Career

Soldavini began karting at the age of seven.[2] Initially competing in the America, Soldavini began competing in Europe in 2017 with Birel ART Racing, finishing 29th on his debut in the WSK Champions Cup.[3] Soldavini remained in karting until 2021, most notably finishing third in the 2018 IAME International Finals in the X30 Mini class.[4]

Stepping up to single-seaters in 2022, Soldavini made his F4 debut in the Italian F4 Championship with Maffi Racing.[5] In the two rounds, Soldavini took a best result of 21st in race one at Monza.[6] One month later, Soldavini competed in the final round of the F4 Spanish Championship with Cram-Pinnacle at Barcelona,[7] scoring a best result of 25th in race one.[8] Soldavini then ended the year with a one-off appearance for KTF Sports in the final round of the F4 Brazilian Championship,[9] taking his maiden career points by finishing 10th in race one.[10]

In 2023, Soldavini joined Team Virage to make a one-off appearance in the Ultimate Cup Series' Challenge Monoplace series at Estoril, winning on debut and finishing third in the other two races.[11][12] Soldavini then joined G4 Racing to compete in the last two rounds of the Formula Regional European Championship.[13] Racing at both the Zandvoort and Hockenheimring rounds, Soldavini scored a best result of 22nd in race two at Zandvoort.[14]

Soldavini mainly raced in Ultimate Cup Series' Challenge Monoplace the following season, joining ART-Line Virage from the second round of the season onwards. Having taken his maiden win in cars in race three at Algarve,[15] Soldavini then won the first two races of the following round at Hockenheimring,[16] before retiring in race three.[17] In the following round at Mugello, Soldavini won all three races,[18] before taking a best result of third at in the following round at Magny-Cours, after taking pole earlier in the weekend.[19] That turned out to be Soldavini's last podium of the season as he withdrew from the final round at Le Castellet, as he ended the year third in points.[20]

Having sat much of 2025 on the sidelines, Soldavini returned to racing in September by joining Nielsen Racing to make his debut in Euroformula Open at the Red Bull Ring round,[21] scoring a best result of ninth in race three.[22]
