See you at Le Mans. Ok, certainly a little earlier too, that is, when the calendar gives the green light for the first stages of the Wec (the World Endurance Championship), but 2025 of Valentino It will be above all the year of the new assault on 24 Hours of La Mans.

Declared objective, when yesterday bmw e Rossi they announced that they will be together again this season.

Valentino will therefore still be the spearhead of the team BMW/WRT and will present itself at the start of the Wec behind the wheel of BMW M4 Gt3 with which – also in 2024 – he has already attacked the most prestigious 24 Hours in the world.

"It's fantastic to be racing once again on some fantastic circuits, which I know well having ridden them on motorbikes", the words with which Rossi presented its 2025 (again) on the track.

"Le Mans – here is the message about the dream that Valentino wants to realize at all costs –... Le Mans is obviously the most important stage. Last year we were unlucky, but we will fight for the podium in 2025".

Rossi talks about podium. Caution? Probably. But certainly pre-tactics because the train of the 24 Hours of La Mans which will pass early next summer could be the most intriguing one to intercept.

Rossi he knows well in fact that the bmw of the team Wrt it's a racing car that he's really starting to feel like his own. A bit like what happened with motorcycles. He, the Doctor, perfected motorcycles, looked after them and made them win. He, who more than ever in 2025 will be a Doctor in Wec. And above all to Le Mans.
