Career
Karting (2015–2023) Egozi started karting in his home country, and his first title came at the Florida Winter Tour in the Rotax Micro Max category in 2017. He gathered many more titles in the USA after that and in 2019 earned a move to the European stage. his first major championship title in Europe came in 2021, as he won the WSK Open Cup in the OKJ Category. This was followed by consistent results in 2022 which earned him a place in Formula 4. Egozi's most recent title was won in 2023 just prior to his first race in single-seaters, winning the WSK Super Master Series driving in the OK category.
Formula 4 (2023–2024)
2023 After his notable karting career, Egozi made his single-seater debut in the 2023 Italian F4 Championship for PHM Racing. His campaign started off well, with consistent points finishes in the first rounds, but he would fail to score points for most rounds but did manage to score in some. Egozi finished 14th in the championship with 37 points. He also made a cameo in the 2023 Formula 4 CEZ Championship with PHM Racing where he got two wins and one pole position, finishing eighth in the championship.
2024 Egozi kicked off his 2024 season in the 2024 Formula Winter Series for Campos Racing. He finished ninth in the standings after winning one race and only contesting the first and third rounds. Egozi then moved on to his main season, in the 2024 F4 Spanish Championship. He would go on to have an unremarkable season under the wing of the Red Bull Junior Team, finishing on the podium three times and failing to secure a victory over the 21 races. In spite of this form, Egozi's consistency allowed him to secure 6th place in the championship with 143 points.
Formula Regional (2025–) 2025: Eurocup-3 debut
In early 2025, Egozi was confirmed to be competing in the 2025 Eurocup-3 season, joining Palou Motorsport.
