Aston Martin and Heart of Racing will be operating a pair of Valkyrie AMR-LMH prototypes in the next FIA WEC season, pending entry acceptance. This decision comes after the announcement that Hypercar manufacturers must enter at least two cars from 2025 onwards. Both Aston Martin and Heart of Racing are supportive of these new regulations aimed at enhancing the sporting environment for all involved. In addition to the FIA WEC campaign, Heart of Racing will continue with its plans to race the Valkyrie in IMSA GTP, with a third car planned for the 2025 season. Development work on the Valkyrie AMR-LMH is progressing well, with track debut scheduled for later this summer and homologation expected in the autumn. Heart of Racing has established a new UK base for the WEC program, while the IMSA-bound Valkyrie will be prepared at their Phoenix HQ in North America. The team is excited about the challenge ahead in the rapidly evolving WEC Hypercar class and keen on contributing to the exceptional racing and fan experience in this competitive series.
