The world’s biggest carmakers and an array of talented racers are gearing up for the 2025 24 Hours of Le Mans, the fourth round of the FIA WEC season, on 14-15 June. With the list of 186 drivers set to take part revealed today (Tuesday 13 May), here’s a rundown of all you need to know.

Hypercar more hotly contested than ever 
&nbsp; 
With no fewer than 21 prototypes, the Hypercar class is taking the race into a new dimension. All eight manufacturers have a fighting chance of winning the race. Last year, nine cars finished on the same lap as the winner &ndash; a record that may well be broken once again next month. Fifteen drivers who have already climbed onto the top step of the Le Mans podium, including the likes of Earl Bamber, S&eacute;bastien Buemi and Antonio Giovinazzi, will again be competing in the top class. Their pedigree makes the outcome all the more uncertain. 
&nbsp; 
Living legends going for the prize 
&nbsp; 
Every year, the 24 Hours of Le Mans attracts some of the biggest names in motorsport and 2025 will be no exception. Jenson Button, 2009 Formula One world champion, will line up for Cadillac Hertz Team Jota while Kevin Magnussen, veteran of 185 Grands Prix, will lead the charge for BMW M Team WRT. Of course, LMGT3 outfit Team WRT will receive lots of popular support with nine-time Grand Prix motorcycle racing world champion Valentino Rossi among their ranks! 
&nbsp; 
The return of an iconic manufacturer 
&nbsp; 
Aston Martin is back racing at the pinnacle of endurance with the V12-powered Valkyrie. The historic British firm first participated in the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1928 and has since made several remarkable appearances in both the top class and in GT. In 1959, Carroll Shelby and Roy Salvadori won the race outright in a DBR1 &ndash; a feat that the drivers of the #007 and #009 cars will strive to emulate and add another line to the brand&rsquo;s impressive track record. Aston Martin will be one of ten makes on the grid to have tasted victory in the world&rsquo;s greatest endurance race &ndash; proof of their undisputed expertise. 
&nbsp; 
Five women racers 
&nbsp; 
The Iron Dames&nbsp;are back in 2025, this time at the wheel of a Porsche 911 GT3 R LMGT3 in partnership with Manthey Racing. They will be determined to improve on the fourth place they achieved in the 2024 LMGT3 standings. Team regulars Michelle Gatting and Rahel Frey will be backed up this year by rookie C&eacute;lia Martin. The Le Mans crowd has rooted for the Iron Dames every year since the team&rsquo;s first appearance in 2019 and the Frenchwoman&rsquo;s inclusion will guarantee more of the same. The other two women set to race are Lilou Wadoux in the Ferrari 296 LMGT3 entered by Richard Mille AF Corse and IDEC Sport&rsquo;s Jamie Chadwick, in LMP2. 
&nbsp; 
An astounding LMGT3 grid 
&nbsp; 
LMGT3 will boast an extra-special field with well-loved Le Mans regulars joined by Mercedes-AMG who will supply three models for the Iron Lynx team. The German marque&rsquo;s presence will add an extra touch of spice to a hotly contested class. Five different brands have already reached the podium in the two rounds of the championship raced so far this season! Nine top-notch manufacturers will field 24 cars in their quest for victory &ndash; a record for LMGT3. The driver roster features GT specialists like Richard Lietz and a pack of hungry young wolves, such as Loek Hartog. 
&nbsp; 
LMP2 soars to another level 
&nbsp; 
Year after year, the LMP2 class stages a fascinating spectacle for the fans. The protagonists are cut out for long battles that often go down to the wire. This year, the star of the LMP2 show is undoubtedly Andr&eacute; Lotterer of IDEC Sport. The three-time 24 Hours of Le Mans winner is back to prepare for the arrival of Genesis in the Hypercar class in 2026, but the German master won&rsquo;t have it all his own way! Among his chief rivals are sure to be 2024 Hyperpole winner Louis Del&eacute;traz in the #199 Oreca 07 &ndash; Gibson entered by AO by TF, and former Hypercar racer Renger van der Zande, at the wheel of United Autosports&rsquo; #22 Oreca. Seventeen LMP2s will fight for the class title on 14-15 June.

Revealed! The 186 drivers set to compete in the 24 Hours of Le Mans!

At the TotalEnergies 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps, the third round of the FIA World Endurance Championship, a large crowd (98,874) was able to discover endurance racing's strategy for decarbonizing racing: hydrogen.

In the Spa-Francorchamps Fan Zone, a three-day Hydrogen Village allowed the public to discover prototypes and concepts of hydrogen-powered racing cars such as the Alpine Alpenglow Hy6 and the Toyota Gazoo Racing Yaris H2 Concept. Track demonstrations were also held on Friday and Saturday to showcase the evolution of this new technology. Alpine&#39;s Alpenglow Hy6 impressed many spectators. To refuel with gaseous hydrogen, a TotalEnergies 700 bar station was installed for the first time in the Belgian paddock.

Educational and fun activities offered by the ACO and MissionH24 allowed young and old alike to &quot;handle&quot;&nbsp;hydrogen and perform water electrolysis, while experts from the ACO, MissionH24, TotalEnergies, Alpine, Toyota, Michelin, Ligier and the FIA ​​interacted with participants at the H2 forum co-organized by the ACO, the FIA ​​WEC and Hydrogen Europe, or H2 Skills. The public also had access to this structure and took as many photos as they asked questions about the Hydrogen energy vector, which should be introduced in Endurance competition by 2028.

Hydrogen Meets the Fans

MissionH24 - L'hydrogène à la rencontre des fans

The Japanese constructor is highlighting its 40-year history at Le Mans with two distinctive liveries this year. One is a nod to the Toyota TS020, also known as the GT-One.

The #7&nbsp;Toyota GR010 Hybrid shared by&nbsp;Mike Conway/Kamui Kobayashi/Nyck de Vries will be dressed in red and white, a look inspired by the&nbsp;TS020 from the&nbsp;1998 and&nbsp;1999 24 Hours. The livery of the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.24h-lemans.com/en/news/toyota-at-the-24-hours-of-le-mans-2-1998-1999-the-iconic-gt-one-52856" target="_blank">TS020, a.k.a. the&nbsp;GT-One</a>, has been adapted for the 2025 #7&nbsp;GR010 Hybrid. The red base color is embellished with irregular white accents&nbsp;running from the front to the rear, clearly paying hommage to the&nbsp;TS020.

TOYOTA GAZOO&nbsp;Racing is seeking its sixth win at Le&nbsp;Mans. While the #7&nbsp;GR010 Hybrid reflects the past, the #8 entrusted to S&eacute;bastien Buemi/Brendon Hartley/Ryo Hirakawa has been given a modern matte black design. The two Hypercars will also show off a new logo underscoring the&nbsp;40th&nbsp;anniversary of Toyota&#39;s debut at the 24 Hours.

<h2>A Legacy Forged by Passion and&nbsp;Performance</h2>

<a href="https://www.24h-lemans.com/en/news/toyota-and-the-impact-of-the-24-hours-of-le-mans-55593" target="_blank">Toyota has marked the history of the race for 40 years</a>&nbsp;since its first participation in 1985 with major highs and lows as well as indisputable technological innovation. With&nbsp;61 cars entered in 26 runnings, the Japanese&nbsp;marque has earned five victories, 18 podium finishes&nbsp;and eight pole positions. From the&nbsp;85C to the&nbsp;GR010 HYBRID, Toyota has navigated several phases:&nbsp;prototypes, the Supra adventure, the introduction of hybrid&nbsp;technology&nbsp;in 2012 and triumph with the&nbsp;TS050 HYBRID then the GR010 Hypercar. The journey has included&nbsp;62 drivers of 16 different nationalities, all contributors to the carmaker&#39;s legend at Le Mans.

Heading into the 93rd&nbsp;24 Hours of Le&nbsp;Mans (11-15 June), TOYOTA GAZOO&nbsp;Racing is second in the FIA World Endurance&nbsp;Championship (FIA WEC), trailing&nbsp;Ferrari AF Corse by 65 points.

Toyota celebrates 40 years at the 24 Hours with standout liveries

Ferrari made it three consecutive victories in the FIA World Endurance Championship in Belgium today (10 May), as the Prancing Horse fended off the challenge of an inspired Alpine to triumph in an enthralling six-hour contest.

In front of the biggest crowd in 14 visits to Spa, the 98,874 on-site spectators were treated to a race that will live long in the memory. While the results sheet might confirm a Ferrari one-two &ndash; the #51 taking the chequered flag just four seconds ahead of the sister #50 scarlet prototype &ndash; the truth was that the 2025 TotalEnergies 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps marked the first time this season that the Italian marque&rsquo;s hegemony was truly threatened&hellip;

<h2>Ferrari beats old rival in LMGT3 duel</h2>

Two legends of GT racing went head-to-head in the LMGT3 category, as Ferrari and Ford reprised their classic duel from the 1960s &ndash; and on this occasion, it was the Italian marque that emerged on top.

After hitting the front of the field, the #21 VISTA AF Corse Ferrari 296 LMGT3 &ndash; shared by Alessio Rovera, Fran&ccedil;ois Heriau and Simon Mann &ndash; made good its escape. The trio duly clinched the Italian outfit&rsquo;s first victory of 2025 &ndash; and third from the last five races &ndash; by a shade over 40 seconds.
