FIA WEC publishes updated 2025 entry list
An updated 2025 entry list for the FIA World Endurance Championship has been published today (16 January), as the pieces of the puzzle continue to slot into place ahead of what promises to be another captivating campaign.
With barely six weeks to go until the season start, 12 of the 18 Hypercar crews in the field – representing eight major automotive brands – have been fully confirmed. Only Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA and Alpine Endurance Team are still to reveal the exact composition of their line-ups, and the new Aston Martin THOR Team is yet to announce four of the six drivers that will pilot the brand’s striking Valkyries over the coming months.
It is a similar story in LMGT3. Team WRT recently reconfirmed motorcycling legend Valentino Rossi for a second consecutive campaign in the championship, while elsewhere in the category, there has been a game of off-season musical chairs, with drivers moving between BMW, Lexus, McLaren and Porsche machinery.
Amongst the intriguing additions at LMGT3 level are rising Brazilian star Eduardo Barrichello – son of multiple grand prix-winner Rubens Barrichello – and Aston Martin Racing factory driver Valentin Hasse Clot at new entrant Racing Spirit of Léman.
Akkodis ASP Team, Heart of Racing Team, Iron Lynx – with its pair of hotly-anticipated Mercedes-AMG LMGT3 cars – Proton Competition and United Autosports are all yet to unveil their full line-ups.
The forthcoming eight-round campaign will get underway with the Qatar 1812km on 28 February, visiting five different regions prior to concluding in Bahrain on 8 November. The racing action will be preceded by the traditional ‘Prologue’ group test for all competitors on 21-22 February at Lusail International Circuit, scene of the curtain-raising contest.
The updated 2025 FIA WEC season entry list can be found here. The final list will be revealed next month.
