Aston Martin will make its first bid for outright Le Mans 24 Hours glory since 2011 in 2025 with the Valkyrie Le Mans Hypercar run by the Heart of Racing squad.
to revive the Valkyrie LMH project mothballed early in 2020 for twin assaults on the World Endurance Championship and the IMSA SportsCar Championship.
An expanded campaign with the V12-engined Valkyrie, possibly including two cars entered for Le Mans, hasn't been ruled out. Lawrence Stroll, executive Chairman of Aston Martin Lagonda, said:"Performance is the lifeblood of everything that we do at Aston Martin, and motorsport is the ultimate expression of this pursuit of excellence.
The definitive Valkyrie racer will be developed as a pure-bred prototype like its rivals from Toyota, Ferrari and Peugeot in LMH. The new Valkyrie LMH will be a non-hybrid like the original race design, which did away with the rear-axle energy-retrieval system of the road car. Multimatic Motorsports, which developed the original LMH as well as the AMR Pro, will remain a key partner in the project.
