Before that he established himself with wins and podiums in Formula Renault 2.0 in the Eurocup, the ALPS and in the NEC championships between 2011 and 2013. In 2010 Oscar was runner up in the Formula BMW Pacific Series. Before that he competed very successfully at national and international level in karting starting in 2001 and continuing through to 2009.
