United Autosports has confirmed a planned return to the Asian Le Mans Series for the 2025/26 season, with a two-car entry after a two-season hiatus from the Series.
The Yorkshire, UK-based team are yet to reveal whether the two-car entry will be in LMP2, GT3 or a mix of both but their decision to return adds a multi-Championship winning squad to a likely healthy list of entry prospects.
United are two-time Asian Le Mans Series champions, who took the outright title in 2018/19 (LMP2), secured the LMP3 title in 2021 and, in the same year, claimed the runner-up position in the LMP3 championship title too.
“It is fantastic to see the Asian Le Mans Series back on our racing calendar,” says Richard Dean, United Autosports CEO. “We have great memories in this series, winning races and taking championship titles, and we’re working hard to replicate that success when we line up on the grid in 2025/26.”
The expansion comes at a busy time for the team with a two car IMSA LMP2 programme that has taken victory in the Rolex 24 at Daytona (2025), adding to race and podium successes the previous season.
The stateside programme has also seen the team take an LMP2 race win in 2024 and a class podium at the Twelve Hours of Sebring (2024).
On the world stage, United Autosports is the official racing partner of McLaren Automotive in the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) LMGT3 class. The LMGT3 programme is now on its second full season in the WEC, with two pole positions, two front row lock outs and two podiums secured to date in an increasingly competitive field.
The two-time Le Mans-winning team (2020 and 2024) also operate three cars in the 2025 European Le Mans Series (ELMS) across the LMP2, LMP2 Pro/Am and LMGT3 categories – with the latter marking McLaren’s return to the endurance series.
The 2025/26 Asian Le Mans Series is set to feature six, four-hour races across Sepang International Circuit in Malaysia (December 12-14th 2025), Dubai (January 29th – February 1st 2026) and Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi (6-8th February 2026).
