The next manufacturer to join the premier category of Endurance is Aston Martin in 2025. The British manufacturer has enlisted the services of The Heart of Racing which will run the car in WEC (Hypercar) and IMSA (GTP).
For its prototype meeting LMH technical regulations, Aston Martin starts from the Valkyrie AMR Pro.
We will have to wait another year before seeing the Valkyrie’s competitive debut, but work has begun on the brand’s side. Present at Daytona, Adam Carter, in charge of the Endurance part at Aston Martin, confided that the testing program had already started a few weeks ago at Silverstone. “All I can say is it was cold.”Adam Carter just smiled. “It was just a matter of testing different systems on an AMR Pro. » Nothing has filtered out regarding the driver who was at the wheel of the prototype.

“Tests will continue intensively in the weeks and months to come”Carter continues. “We have very clear objectives for the tests during the next runs. » Remember that the prototype will be equipped with the 6.5-liter V12 engine without a hybrid system.
By starting with an existing model, Aston Martin has more latitude on the timing knowing that the racing car is expected on track during the second quarter of the year.
