The 2025 Michelin Le Mans Cup calendar will include the first race at Silverstone for the series as part of the 4 Hours of Silverstone weekend in September. The other events are unchanged from the 2024 season, with events in Barcelona, Le Castellet, Le Mans, Spa-Francorchamps and Portimão.
All rounds next season will be in support of the European Le Mans Series, except for the two 55 minutes Road To Le Mans races on the full 13.6km La Sarthe circuit ahead of the 2025 24 Hours of Le Mans.
The six round, seven race series will begin in Barcelona, with the Collective Test on April 2nd followed by Round 1 at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya on Saturday 5th April.
There will then be two events held in France, with Round 2 at Le Castellet at the start of May, followed by Road to Le Mans in June.
After the summer break, the MLMC returns in August for Round 4 at Spa-Francorchamps, followed by the first ever Michelin Le Mans Cup race at Silverstone on the 13th September. The season finale will, once again, be held at the Autodromo Internacional do Algarve in Portugal on Sunday 19th October.
Pierre Fillon, President of the Automobile Club de l’Ouest: “The Michelin Le Mans Cup has been a huge success since the first season in 2016 and it is 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 established events at 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, General Director, Le Mans Endurance Management (LMEM): “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 ELMS, FIA World Endurance Championship and, ultimately, the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
“The 2025 calendar sees five of the six events retained from the 2024 season, that allows LMEM to work with the circuits to build the events and attract a good fanbase.
“We are extremely pleased to be taking the Michelin Le Mans Cup to Silverstone for the first time since the series started in 2016 and this will allow the British fans that don’t travel to Le Mans the opportunity to see the MLMC in action 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.”
