Career

Day made his single-seater debut in 2021, joining Xcel Motorsport to compete in the Formula 4 UAE Championship. In his maiden season in single-seaters, Day took his only win of the season at the second Yas Marina round and finished third at in race two Dubai, which helped him secure sixth in points. After finishing fifth in the Non-Championship Trophy Round later that year, Day returned to Xcel Motorsport for his sophomore season in the Formula 4 UAE Championship. Taking his first podium of the season in the season-opening round at Yas Marina, Day then scored only three points finished across the next four rounds, including a second-place finish at Dubai, on his way to 13th in points.

Day then switched to GT4 racing, joining R Racing to race in the British GT Championship. Driving alongside Josh Miller, the pair became the series' youngest winning pair by scoring class wins at Snetterton and Spa to secure third in the GT4 standings. At the end of 2022, Day also made a one-off appearance for Mirage Racing in the GT4 European Series at Barcelona. Remaining in GT4 competition for 2023, Day rejoined Mirage Racing to compete in his first full season in GT4 European Series. Racing in the Silver class alognside Ruben del Sarte for most of the season, the duo took a lone class podium at Spa and ended the year 15th in points.

Day then joined Forsetti Motorsport for 2024, winning the GT4 Winter Series with them at the start of the year, before remaining with them to race in the GT4 class of the British GT Championship. In his second season in the series, Day won the season-opening race at Oulton Park and scored four more podiums to end the season runner-up in the GT4 overall standings, as the Silver cup champion. During 2024, Day also competed for Racing Spirit of Léman in the GT4 European Series, in which he scored three podiums in the final four races to finish fifth in the Silver cup standings. Having made his GT3 debut earlier in 2024 with PROsport Racing in ADAC GT Masters, Day joined Earl Bamber Motorsport to race in the GT class for the last two rounds of the 2024–25 Asian Le Mans Series. In the four races he contested, Day took his first podium in GT3 competition in race two at Dubai before ending the season with a second-place finish at Yas Marina to secure fifth in points.

For the rest of 2025, Day joined Comtoyou Racing for a dual programme in both the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup and GT World Challenge Europe Sprint Cups after graduating from the AMR Driver Academy. Finishing 33rd in the Silver Cup standings of the former, Day found more success in the latter, scoring three class wins and two more podiums to secure the Silver Cup title at the season finale in Valencia alongside Kobe Pauwels.
