The year 2020 saw him join Súper TC 2000 representing Equipo FDC and Monti Motorsport. On the international front, he competed in TCR Europe and participated in the World Touring Car Cup under Target Competition, appearing as a guest driver for two WTCR events.

Sapag continued racing domestically in 2021, driving for the Honda factory team in Super TC 2000 and competing in Top Race V6, where he secured a sprint race win. Additionally, during the inaugural 2021 TCR South America Touring Car Championship, he earned pole position and four podium finishes, ultimately placing fourth overall with one victory in 2022.
