Sagrera made his single-seater debut with MOL Racing in the final round of the F4 Spanish Championship at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya. [1] Despite being a rookie, he managed to finish the third race in the top ten, although he did not receive points as he was classed as a guest driver. [2]

In 2020 the Spaniard returned to the Spanish Championship, this time racing the first four rounds of the season for MOL. [3] However, Sagrera was only able to score eight points over the course of the 12 races, and ended up 21st in the standings.
