All events next season will be in support of the European Le Mans Series, except for the two 55-minute ‘Road To Le Mans’ races on the full 13.6km La Sarthe circuit ahead of the 2025 edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

The six-round, seven-race campaign will begin in Barcelona, with the pre-season Collective Test on April 2 preceding Round 1 at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya on April 5.

There will then be two events in France – Le Castellet at the start of May, and Road to Le Mans in June.

After the summer break, the Michelin Le Mans Cup resumes in August for Round 4 at Spa-Francorchamps, followed by the series’ first-ever trip to Silverstone on September 13. The season finale will, once again, be held at the Autodromo Internacional do Algarve in Portugal on October 18.

Pierre Fillon, President of the Automobile Club de l’Ouest, said: “The Michelin Le Mans Cup has been a huge success since its inaugural campaign in 2016, establishing itself as an important part of the growth and success of endurance racing around the world.

“The 2025 calendar will include Silverstone for the first time, which is good news for our British fans, as well as the ever-popular visits to Barcelona, Le Castellet, Spa-Francorchamps, Portimão and, of course, Le Mans. We look forward to more action-packed racing from the Michelin Le Mans Cup next season.”

Frédéric Lequien, Le Mans Endurance Management (LMEM) CEO, said: “Since 2016, the Michelin Le Mans Cup has provided teams and drivers with a very important step on the endurance racing ladder that leads to the European Le Mans Series (ELMS), FIA World Endurance Championship (FIA WEC) and, ultimately, the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

“The 2025 calendar sees five of the six rounds retained from the 2024 season, enabling the championship to work closely with its existing circuits to build the events and attract a strong fanbase. 

“We are extremely pleased to be taking the Michelin Le Mans Cup to Silverstone for the first time since the series began, allowing British fans that don’t travel to Le Mans the opportunity to see the stars of the show up close on one of the most challenging circuits in the world.

“The 2025 Michelin Le Mans Cup promises to be an exciting season for all involved.”
