Two Vantage GT3 entries confirmed for Asian Le Mans Series 2024-25

Tuesday, September 10, 2024

With its entry window having closed at the end of August, the Asian Le Mans Series today posted news of a capacity forty-four car entry for its 2024-2025 season which will again see its winter series based around the three circuits of Sepang International, the Dubai Autodrome and the Yas Marina circuits.

Within that capacity of entry of eleven LMP2 cars, six LMP3 cars and (most importantly) twenty-seven GT3 based cars will be two Aston Martin Racing Vantage GT3 cars from both the Blackthorn AMR and Earl Bamber Motorsport (EBM) teams.

So far, the entry list is just team based and does not make any indication upon possible drivers. The Blackthorn AMR team are fully season entrants within the Michelin Le Mans Cup and will presumably be using this pathway to a full season European Le Mans Series entry next season whilst the EBM team have only aligned themselves to the AMR platform for their customer drivers earlier this season with exploits into the 12Hrs of Sepang, a full season within the GT World Challenge Asia Series and most recently within the Thailand Super Series.

With so much news still to come from the series, eyes will be turned to the season opener at the Sepang International at the beginning of December before progressing to both Dubai and Abu Dhabi later in February 2025.
