The Asian Le Mans Series has revealed the calendar for the 2024/2025 season which will consist of six races, all held as double events at three different circuits.
The format therefore remains the same as seen in recent years, but with one more race for the series which will visit tracks such as Sepang, Dubai and Abu Dhabi, giving the winners the opportunity to obtain a ticket for the 24h of Le Mans.
The start has been set for the first weekend of December in Malaysia, then after the Christmas break we will move to Dubai for the second stage in February, followed immediately by the grand finale in Yas Marina where we will see a great battle between the LMP2, LMP3 cars and GT3.
Also for next year the ACO organizers will collaborate with SRO Motorsports Group regarding the Balance of Performance of the GT3 and other things, indicating that everything possible has been done to avoid coincidences with other events around the world, such as the Gulf 12h, Dubai 24h and Bathurst 12h which are held in the same period as the mini-championship.
“The Asian Le Mans Series continues to develop, attracting more competitors every year. The diversity and high level of participants make the series an unmissable event,” says Pierre Fillon, President of the Automobile Club de l'Ouest .
“To support its development, and in full consultation with competitors, we are pleased to announce a denser and more attractive calendar. This format, featuring two races per weekend, is popular with fans and competitors alike. time to see you in Sepang in December for another action-packed season of this series!”.

Stability and an attractive platform have been the key to the success of the ACO Championship.”
“I have no doubt that many of the GT teams and drivers who spend the summer with us will increase their plans to include a winter in Sepang, Abu Dhabi and Dubai, as many already do. SRO will continue to support these efforts by providing assistance behind the scenes and also avoiding clashes between events”.
