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]
