He previously competed in the 2023 FIA Formula 3 Championship for Jenzer Motorsport, and previously raced in the Euroformula Open Championship.[1]
García competed in karting over 2018 and 2019, and finished 2nd in the FIA Mexico National Karting Championship in 2018.
García made his racing debut in the 2018-19 NACAM Formula 4 Championship, where he finished 5th in the overall standings.
In 2020, he competed in the F4 Spanish Championship with Global Racing Service,[2] where he came 22nd in the standings. He switched to Campos Racing for the 2021 season, where he finished 24th.[3]
The following year, García competed in the Euroformula Open Championship with Team Motopark.[4][5] He scored a podium at Monza and ended up seventh in the standings, behind his teammates Ollie Goethe and Frederick Lubin.[6]

García drove for Jenzer Motorsport in the 3-day post-season test of the 2022 FIA Formula 3 Championship, teaming up with fellow rookies Nikita Bedrin and Taylor Barnard.[7] On 27 January 2023, he was signed by the Swiss team for the 2023 season.[1] García spent most of the season fighting outside the top 20, although in the Silverstone sprint race a late charge by him on slick tyres at a damp track saw him charge to 11th.[8] His only points came in the Spa-Francorchamps feature race where a right gamble to remain on wet tyres saw him jump all the way to fourth place, as Barnard won and Bedrin made the podium.[9] This put García 20th in the standings with 12 points.[10]
Along with his FIA Formula 3 campaign, García competed in the 2023 European Le Mans Series with Cool Racing in the LMP3 category, alongside Adrien Chila and Marcos Siebert.[11] He started the year strongly, with a victory at the opening in Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya.[12] Further wins at MotorLand Aragón and Spa-Francorchamps saw them clinch the title.[13]
García participated in the 2023–24 Asian Le Mans Series with Nielsen Racing during the 2024 pre-season.[14]
For his 2024 campaign, García left FIA Formula 3 and moved to endurance racing full-time, joining Isotta Fraschini in the FIA World Endurance Championship in the Hypercar category.[15] He was however dropped before the start of the season and replaced with Carl Bennett.
That year, García also returned to the European Le Mans Series, remaining with Cool Racing but moved up to the LMP2 category.[16] Following two races, the latter of which García and his teammates scored a podium in, the Mexican was once again replaced by Bennett.[17]
