Mohnhaupt returned to racing in 2023 in the NACAM Formula 4 Championship, running a part-time schedule that resulted in two podiums on her return event.[6] She made her first stock car appearance in 2024, contesting the penultimate round of the NASCAR Mexico Truck Series at the Autodromo Miguel E. Abed.[7]
