The 2024-25 Asian Le Mans Series grid will feature 11 LMP2 and six LMP3 prototypes, and 27 GTs.  Six manufacturers are represented in the GT class: Aston Martin, Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren, Mercedes and Porsche.

The 11 LMP2 entries include former champions such as Algarve Pro Racing (two cars), Nielsen Racing and DKR Engineering. Reigning GT champions Pure Rxcing are entering the LMP2 class with an Oreca 07-Gibson operated by TF Sport. Proton Competition, AF Corse, Inter Europol Competition and RD Limited complete the field.

Six Ligier JS P320-Nissans will compete in the final season of LMP3 before an upgrade is introduced. The six teams entered are Graff Racing, Inter Europol Competition, RLR MSport, Bretton Racing, Ultimate and High Class Racing.

The GT class is the largest contingent on the grid with no fewer than 27 cars – a 17% increase on last season’s 23 entries. Several new teams are joining the championship. Two Aston Martin Vantage AMR Gt3s will take on seven Ferrari 296 GT3s, a Lamborghini Huracán GT3 EVO 2, two McLaren 720S GT3s, eight Mercedes AMG GT3 EVOs and seven Porsche 911 GT3 Rs. Triple Eight, the 2023-24 runners-up, will be back to try and go one better with a Mercedes AMG GT3 EVO. AF Corse is entering four Ferrari 296 GT3s with the other three fielded by Kessel Racing, Car Guy and Hong Kong-based outfit Absolute Racing. The teams running a Porsche 911 GT3 R are Manthey Racing (one car), Proton Competition (two), Car Collection (two), Origine (one) and Tsunami RT (one).

Pierre Fillon, President, Automobile Club de l’Ouest: How pleasing it is to see that the Asian Le Mans Series will have a packed grid this season! Several prestigious teams are planning to enter the championship which is due to begin in Sepang in less than three months’ time. The action will then switch to the United Arab Emirates with four rounds in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. It’s all shaping up to be an exciting campaign. Roll on the opener in Malaysia on 7 December!

Frédéric Lequien, CEO, ALMEM and LMEM: We are extremely pleased to announce a maximum sized grid for the Asian Le Mans Series this year. The series continues to provide a very attractive programme to both existing and new teams, including the welcome arrival of two Chinese teams Climax Racing and Origine. This season the Asian Le Mans Series has expanded to six 4-hour races, and we will continue to work with everyone involved to enable the series to continue to grow and evolve.

Stéphane Ratel, Founder and CEO, SRO Motorsports Group: The Asian Le Mans Series’ very impressive 2024/25 entry list once again underlines motorsport’s ever-increasing popularity across the continent following SRO’s own record-breaking year there. Our partnership with the ACO is not outwardly visible but close collaboration and shared knowledge has undoubtedly contributed towards the success of this region’s two biggest championships, which not only co-exist but actively support each other. Naturally, my eye is drawn to the 27 GT3 entries, some of which are Fanatec GT World Challenge Asia Powered by AWS regulars, but the depth of the prototype classes is also worthy of note. Congratulations to Frederic Lequien and his Asian Le Mans Series team.
