It’s official, Théo Pourchaire finally has a seat for the 2025 season. He joins the Algarve Pro Racing team for the full season in ELMS and the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
The rumor had been circulating for a few weeks, but it’s finally official. Théo Pourchaire joins the Portuguese team Algarve Pro Racing. He will participate in the full season of the European Le Mans Series (ELMS), which begins in Barcelona on April 6. He will also be part of the LMP2 crew to race in the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans. The 2023 Formula 2 champion, did not compete for an entire season in the same category last year.
This is a great opportunity to further his career in motorsport: “I am very happy to join Algarve Pro Racing for the 2025 season in ELMS and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. This is my first season in endurance racing, which will be different from the single-seaters I’m used to driving. I can’t wait to start the first race in ELMS in Barcelona. Racing at Le Mans has always been a dream for me, it will be the highlight of my year. Having the opportunity to compete in the 24 Hours of Le Mans with this team, which holds the record for wins at this race, will be incredible.”
Clear Ambitions
The ambitions are already announced by the Grassois: “I am sure we will be able to fight at the front. We will give our best and work hard to bring back the title in ELMS and another victory at Le Mans.” The team director, Stewart Cox, also relies on his new driver to restore the team’s honors in Portuguese land: “I know he will quickly adapt and be an asset for the team to reclaim its title in ELMS.”
He will drive in Barcelona for the pre-season tests at the end of March. In addition to the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Théo Pourchaire will race on his home turf at the Paul Ricard circuit on May 3 and 4, 2025.
