SATURDAY 7 JUNE: STARS OF THE TRACK ON THE STREETS OF LE MANS 
 
For the third time in the history of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, 30 cars, 19 in this year&rsquo;s line-up, will parade along a 2.1-kilometre loop in the city centre. Last year, thousands of admirers lined the route, bringing the trackside atmosphere into town. This year we&rsquo;re doubling the fun: the parade will complete two loops, starting from Place du Jet d&rsquo;Eau, the fountain at the foot of the cathedral. 
Safety will be assured by 70 marshals stationed along the route. See you on Saturday 7 June at the closure of the scrutineering session, when the stars of the track take to the streets of Le Mans.

24 Hours of Le Mans 2025  A historic grid calls for an outstanding schedule of events

Reigning Formula E world champion Pascal Wehrlein is set to make his 24 Hours of Le Mans début in this year’s race (11-15 June). Having joined the Porsche Penske Motorsport team, the German will share the wheel of the #4 Porsche 963 with Felipe Nasr and Nick Tandy.

After familiarising himself with the Porsche 963 in January&rsquo;s 24 Hours of Daytona with JDC-Miller MotorSports, Pascal Wehrlein is ready to face a whole new challenge in the French endurance classic. He is joining a top-notch line-up alongside three-time IMSA champion Felipe Nasr and 2015 24 Hours of Le Mans winner Nick Tandy. Veteran Tandy has 12 Le Mans starts under his belt (nine in a Porsche) while Nasr is preparing to make his sixth appearance in the race.

Porsche Motorsport Vice President Thomas Laudenbach says Wehrlein&rsquo;s inclusion in the line-up is a no-brainer. &ldquo;The Porsche driver roster is absolutely top-tier and incredibly deep,&rdquo; he enthuses. &ldquo;Pascal Wehrlein has fully convinced us with his performance in testing and his participation in the 24 Hours of Daytona. As the reigning Formula E World Champion, he has earned his Le Mans debut at the wheel of a Porsche 963.&rdquo;

Taking the wheel of the Porsche 963 at the 24 Hours of Le Mans is an accomplishment for the 30-year-old German. &ldquo;Competing for Porsche Penske Motorsport at Le Mans is a dream come true for me,&rdquo; Wehrlein insists. &ldquo;I&#39;m&nbsp;looking forward to this major challenge because, unlike in Formula E, I have to share everything in the Porsche 963 that I would normally tailor specifically to myself: seating position, setup, strategy, and more. My primary goal is to do a strong job for the team and learn as much as possible.&rdquo;

&nbsp;

<h2>Ant&oacute;nio F&eacute;lix da Costa in LMP2</h2>

Unlike rookie Wehrlein, his Formula E teammate Ant&oacute;nio F&eacute;lix da Costa is a familiar face at the race. The Portuguese driver will line up in an Oreca 07-Gibson LMP2 this year, his seventh 24 Hours of Le Mans appearance. After winning the class in 2022, he hopes his experience and determination will put his team in with a shout of top spot once again. &ldquo;I am very happy to be back at Le Mans after one year&rsquo;s absence,&rdquo; he says. &ldquo;In my last LMP2 appearance, I won the class. That&rsquo;s my goal again this year.&rdquo;

With Wehrlein at the wheel of the #4 Porsche 963 alongside Nasr and Tandy, Porsche Penske Motorsport is banking on a solid, complementary trio to clinch its 20th overall win at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Pascal Wehrlein joins Porsche Penske Motorsport for 2025 24 Hours of Le Mans

Steve McQueen nurtured a passion for the 24 Hours of Le Mans, and will forever be one of the race’s most well-known faces, thanks to his film Le Mans. The Automobile Club de l’Ouest and Renaissance Licensing agency joined forces in 2021 to produce a lifestyle collection featuring the US actor and producer.

As we approach the 55th anniversary of the film&rsquo;s release, Chase and Madison McQueen share their memories of their grandfather, his unique bond with the 24 Hours of Le Mans, and the lasting mark he made on motorsport culture.

What does Steve McQueen&rsquo;s legacy in the world of motorsport and the 24 Hours of Le Mans mean to you and the family?

Chase and Madison: &quot;Our grandfather&rsquo;s legacy in motorsport, especially with Le Mans, is something we hold incredibly close. Growing up, our father shared stories of what this race meant to him and how he wasn&rsquo;t just acting, but striving to capture the true essence of Le Mans. 
To us, it&rsquo;s more than history; it&rsquo;s inspiration. He showed what it means to chase a dream with everything you&rsquo;ve got and risk it all for something he believed in. Le Mans was the ultimate stage for that passion. We&rsquo;re so proud to see his name still light up the faces of race fans and drivers alike &mdash; a legacy of grit, heart, and authenticity that continues to inspire.&quot;

How does the collaboration between the McQueen family and the ACO, in celebration of the 55th anniversary of Le Mans, honor his memory and passion for motorsport?

&quot;Collaborating with the ACO on the 55th anniversary of Le Mans feels like a dream come true &mdash; it&rsquo;s like we&rsquo;re bringing our grandfather&rsquo;s spirit back to the track he cherished most, a place where our family&rsquo;s deep love for racing took root.&nbsp; 
This partnership goes beyond celebrating a film; it&rsquo;s about honoring the race that defined him. The ACO understands what Le Mans meant to him &mdash; the endurance, the intensity, the raw passion &mdash; and they&rsquo;re helping us share that with the world. For us, it&rsquo;s a bridge between his past and today&rsquo;s fans, showing why Steve McQueen and the 24 Hours of Le Mans will always be inseparable.&quot;

&nbsp;

How do you feel about the lasting impact that the film Le Mans continues to have on fans and the motorsport community today?

&quot;It&rsquo;s truly incredible to see the impact Le Mans still has after all these years. Here we are, 55 years later, talking about how this film touched generations of racing fans. Our grandfather poured his heart into it, and you can feel that in every frame. It&rsquo;s a timeless piece that captures the soul of real motorsport &mdash; what racing felt like when drivers were risking it all.&nbsp; 
For the community, it&rsquo;s a benchmark of authenticity that still inspires racers and filmmakers alike. We&rsquo;re so proud&nbsp;that his vision continues to resonate, proving his love for the sport was universal and timeless.&quot;

What do you believe is the special connection between Steve McQueen, the film Le Mans, and the 24 Hours of Le Mans, especially as we approach the 55th anniversary?

&quot;The connection between our grandfather, the film Le Mans, and the 24 Hours of Le Mans feels electric &mdash; they&rsquo;re intertwined in a way that&rsquo;s hard to put into words. He didn&rsquo;t just make a movie; he captured the very soul of the race. He became obsessed with Le Mans because it demanded everything he valued. The film brought that to life with real cars, real danger, and raw emotion.&nbsp; 
As we approach the 55th anniversary, that bond feels even stronger &mdash; it&rsquo;s a moment to celebrate how he brought the race to the silver screen for millions to enjoy. It&rsquo;s a story that still resonates, offering the perfect foundation to bring fans closer to that magic, whether they&rsquo;re at the track or reliving the film.&quot;

What do you hope the upcoming collection, built around Steve McQueen&rsquo;s legacy and the 24 Hours of Le Mans, will convey to fans and collectors?

&quot;Our grandfather was all about authenticity &mdash; he had no time for anything fake. So, we hope this collection feels like him. Every piece should tell a story, making fans and collectors feel like they&rsquo;re part of his world We want it to reflect his love for racing and the raw passion of Le Mans, creating something that&rsquo;s not just cool but true to who he was. That&rsquo;s what he&rsquo;d want.&quot;

Steve McQueen and the 24 Hours of Le Mans: an authentic heritage

The 2025/26 Asian Le Mans Series calendar will see a return to the three circuits seen in 2024/25, with Rounds 1 and 2 in Malaysia, Rounds 3 and 4 in Dubai and Rounds 5 and 6 in Abu Dhabi.

The opening two 4-hour races will take place at the Sepang International Circuit near Kuala Lumpur in December, one week later than 2024 on the 12-14 December 2025.&nbsp; The two races in Dubai will be held on Saturday 31 January and Sunday 1 February, with the season finale at the Yas Marina Circuit a week later on Saturday 7 and Sunday 8 February 2026.

There had been a possibility to include Buriram in Thailand in the 2025/26 calendar at the end of November, but, unfortunately, a suitable date that worked for both the series and the circuit couldn&rsquo;t be found.

The Mandalika Circuit in Indonesian had also been considered as an alternative but the upgrades needed to bring it up to the required safety standards for the Le Mans Prototypes couldn&rsquo;t be guaranteed to be completed on time.&nbsp;

Both circuits are being considered for the 2026/27 season.

Pierre Fillon, President of the Automobile Club de l&#39;Ouest: &ldquo;The Asian Le Mans Series has demonstrated the solidity of its foundations these past few years. The calendar is stable, the circuits esteemed, and the championship is an excellent springboard towards higher goals. For the best in class in LMP2 and GT, the ALMS also opens the door to the 24 Hours of Le Mans. We look forward to meeting our competitors in Sepang in December to begin another great season.&rdquo;

Fr&eacute;d&eacute;ric Lequien, ALMEM and LMEM CEO:&nbsp;&ldquo;After a highly successful season that saw 47 entries for the final round in Abu Dhabi, we were looking to take the series to Thailand or Indonesian next season.&nbsp; However, due to circumstances beyond our control, the decision has been taken to continue with the same format that has proven to be successful for the past two seasons, which has been received positively by the teams and sponsors.&nbsp;

&ldquo;The facilities at the three circuits on the calendar are second to none, with Sepang being home of the MotoGP Grand Prix of Malaysia, the technically challenging Dubai Autodrome circuit that drivers love to test themselves on and the beautiful surroundings at Yas Marina, which hosts the final race of 2025 Formula 1 season.

&ldquo;The 2025/26 calendar has also been designed to avoid the important dates for Chinese New Year and Ramadan and also avoid a clash with the 2026 Rolex 24 at Daytona.&nbsp;

&ldquo;Looking ahead we will continue to work with the staff at Buriram and Mandalika to explore the possibility of including one, or both, in 2026/27.&rdquo;

St&eacute;phane Ratel, SRO Motorsports Group Founder &amp; CEO: &ldquo;Stability is key to success. And the Asian Le Mans Series&#39; existing calendar format has been a critical component of that in recent seasons. Maintaining the current combination allows Asian and European customers to compete together in what has fast become a congested period in the year for endurance racing. Consistency is vitally important in our business so I&#39;m happy to see both accounted for in the 2025/26 calendar.&quot;
