Day then joined Forsetti Motorsport for 2024, winning the GT4 Winter Series with them at the start of the year,[23] before remaining with them to race in the GT4 class of the British GT Championship.[24] 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.[25][26] During 2024, Day also competed for Racing Spirit of Léman in the GT4 European Series,[27] in which he scored three podiums in the final four races to finish fifth in the Silver Cup standings.[28] Having made his GT3 debut earlier in 2024 with PROsport Racing in ADAC GT Masters,[29] Day joined Earl Bamber Motorsport to race in the GT class for the last two rounds of the 2024–25 Asian Le Mans Series.[30] 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.[31][32]
For the rest of 2025, Day joined Comtoyou Racing for a dual programme in both the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance and Sprint Cups after graduating from the AMR Driver Academy.[33][34] 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.[35] During 2025, Day also competed in GT World Challenge Australia for Volante Rosso Motorsport alongside Liam Talbot,[36] scoring a lone win at Sandown on his debut round.[37] Day returned EBM for the first round of the 2025–26 Asian Le Mans Series at Sepang, in which he scored a best result of seventh.[38]
