Vidales started karting in 2013 where he won the Spanish Karting Championship, he won it for the 2nd time the following year. In 2017 Vidales joined the Tony Kart racing team where he finished 3rd in the WSK Final Cup and then in the same year he came runner up in the CIK-FIA World Championship beating the likes of FIA Formula 3 driver Clément Novalak, former Ferrari Driver Academy driver Gianluca Petecof and British F3 driver Ulysse de Pauw. [1] Vidales then finished 3rd in the Kart World Cup in 2018 and then managed to improve by one place in 2019. [2]
In late July 2020, Vidales management team announced he’d be joining JD Motorsport for the second round in Imola. [3] In his first professional single seater race Vidales put his car on pole for the 1st race. He pulled away from Finnish teammate William Alatalo, despite a couple of safety cars Vidales kept in front and won his first ever single seater race. In the 2nd race, JD Motorsport locked out the front row, Vidales starting in 2nd, however he jumped Alatalo at the start and from that point he controlled the race and won once again. [4] Vidales would finish on the podium a further three times throughout the campaign, and finished sixth in the overall championship standings and second in the rookie standings, only behind Alex Quinn.
In December 2020, Vidales switched to Prema Powerteam to contest the 2021 season following the merger between Formula Renault Eurocup and the Formula Regional European Championship.
