Aston Martin Valkyrie, the only ‘Hypercar’ to contest the world’s two premier sportscar series, IMSA and the FIA World Endurance Championship, will contest both series with an unchanged driver line-up, following an encouraging debut season at the highest level of sportscar racing.

A promising inaugural season

Valkyrie’s inaugural season ended with a flurry of points finishes, including a best WEC finish of fifth overall in the 6 Hours of Fuji, while Riberas led a WEC race for the first time when charging to the front on merit in the Bapco Energies 8 Hours of Bahrain before ending the season with more points for seventh place.

Meanwhile in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship finale – the 10-hour Motul Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta – in mid-October, Valkyrie clinched its first podium in global competition, coming within five seconds of a famous maiden victory with De Angelis, Gunn and Riberas.
