The ACO awarded the final two automatic invitations to the 2025 Le Mans 24 Hours following the Asian Le Mans Series season finale at Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi.
Three racing drivers in podium lineup
Algarve Pro Racing claimed the LMP2 title and subsequent Le Mans invitation after dominating the season with four wins from six races. Their No. 25 crew of Michael Jensen, Valerio Rinicella, and Peugeot Hypercar driver Malthe Jakobsen secured the championship by 21 points over RD Limited.
Blue race car racing on track
Manthey Racing earned the GT class title and Le Mans entry after their No. 10 Porsche 911 GT3 R team of Antares Au, Joel Sturm, and Klaus Bachler won the season finale. This success could give Manthey three total entries at Le Mans, as they already operate Porsche's two FIA WEC LMGT3 cars.
