He participated in two Formula One World Championship Grands Prix, debuting on 13 May 1950. He scored no championship points.
Martin is better known for his participation in several of the prewar grands prix. He won the first Grand Prix Aix les Bains Circuit du Lac in 1949 with a Jicey-BMW<ref>Article about Jicey the French race car designer (fr)</ref> developed by Jean Caillas.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
In the 1950s he embarked on a brief career as an auto-maker, working at the Paris-based garage he owned with his father to produce the Martin-Spéciale. The car was exhibited at the 1952 Paris Motor Show but never progressed to series production.
He was one of the last surviving drivers from that era until his death at a hospital near his home in La Rochelle in 2006.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
