Auto racing series
The drivers of the No. 51 AF Corse Ferrari are the Hypercar World Endurance Drivers' Champions, with Ferrari also taking the Manufacturers' Championship. The No. 92 Porsche of Manthey 1st Phorm are the LMGT3 Endurance Trophy winners.
The2025 FIA World Endurance Championship was the thirteenth season of theFIA World Endurance Championship , asports car racing series organised by theFédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) and theAutomobile Club de l'Ouest (ACO). The series was open to Hypercars (built underLe Mans Hypercar (LMH) orLe Mans Daytona h (LMDh) regulations) andLMGT3 racing cars.
From this season onwards, manufacturers are required to field at least two cars in the Hypercar class to be allowed to participate. The same rule is already enforced in the LMGT3 category.[ 1] Additionally, in the LMGT3 class the Bronze-rated driver is obligated to take part in Qualifying session, with the Silver-rated driver participating in the Hyperpole session. Furthermore, the maximum grid size for this season has been increased from 37 to 40, to accommodate the increase in entries by Hypercar manufacturers who fielded only one car in the 2024 World Endurance Championship.[ 2]
The calendar was announced on 14 June 2024, during the2024 24 Hours of Le Mans weekend. The calendar was unchanged from 2024, with theImola Circuit featuring on the calendar until at least 2028, with the circuit committing to building additional pit garages.[ 3] The6 Hours of Fuji marked the 100th race of the World Endurance Championship since its inaugural race at the12 Hours of Sebring in 2012.[ 4]
