Aston Martin Racing has announced that the new Valkyrie GTP model will debut at the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship in March at Sebring. The decision was made to skip the Rolex 24 At Daytona in January and opt for Sebring as the Valkyrie’s first competitive event. The global racing launch for the Valkyrie is scheduled for late February at the FIA World Endurance Championship in Qatar, in partnership with The Heart of Racing. The Valkyrie underwent its first IMSA-sanctioned test at Daytona last week, where drivers Roman de Angelis, Ross Gunn, and Alex Riberas took turns behind the wheel. The Valkyrie, compliant with LMH regulations, shared the track with cars built to LMDh rules from other manufacturers such as Acura, BMW, Lamborghini, and Porsche.
