MotoGP lege𝐆nd Valentino Rossi has revealed he will commit to either the World Endurance Ch꧒ampionship or GT World Challenge Europe for 2025 - not both.

Since retiring🍃 from motorcycle raciꦐng, Rossi has regularly competed in sportscars.

The Italian has raced iꦅn GT World Challe🎶nge Europe since 2022, but recently tested BMW’s hypercar for WEC.

Earlier this month, Rossi was in action a💙t the Bahrain🌠 International Circuit, driving the BMW M Hybrid V8 LMDh car.

It’s now clear that Rossi could make the꧒ full-time switch to WEC in 2025, with BMW pushing him in that direction.

As quoted by Sportscar36⭕5, the nine-time motorcycle champion admitted “it’s more important” for BMW that he races for🧸 them in WEC and that he has to choose between the two series.

Rossi also confirmed he won’t race in both.

“For them, it’s more important,𓄧” Rossi said. “I don’t decide yet because some things are better here some things are better there. Now, it’s more WEC.

“Anyway now in two or three weeks I will race in the GT World Challenge for the last race in Jeddah and after we will 🌜decide right after and we will let you know. Anyway, I will do one or the other one [and not both].”

It was a successful test in the BMW hypercar for the 45-year-old as he completed 69 laps in to🅰tal.

His best time was second-best in terms of the rookies, just behind Ferrari’s Arthu💞r Leclerc.

Rossi was buoyed by how the BMW hypercar handled and saw similarities to his ti꧑me riding motorcycles.

“First of all, the line with🌃 the Hypercar is more similar to the motorcycle line because you stay ✨on the track usually,” he added.

“Because with the GT for me at the beginning was very difficult, you have to cut 𒅌everything. Cut outside, cut especially inside [the curbsꦜ]. So it’s another way to drive.

“This one is more similar to a bike. Al🅘so the speed is hi൩gher, but at the same time you have also more grip.

“So it’s very good and also it’ꦕs a real day of testing. I was alone in the car, I have all the guys with me, I have Rene Rast who gave me a lot of advice so I can improve during the day like this. It was good. I enjoyed.”
