MotoGP legend Valentino Rossi has revealed he will commit to eit♈her the World Endurance Championsh🍎ip or GT World Challenge Europe for 2025 - not both.

Since retiring from motorcycle rac💟ing, Rossi has regularly competed in sportscars.

The Italian has raced in GT World Challenge Europe since 2022, but recently tested BMW’s hypercar for WꦫEC.

Earlier this month, Rossi was in action at the Bahrain International Cir🌊cuit, driving the BMW M Hybrid V8 LMDh car.

It’s now clear that R📖ossi could🍌 make the full-time switch to WEC in 2025, with BMW pushing him in that direction.

As quoted byꩵ Sportscar365, the nine-time motorcycle champion admitted “it’s more impo🎉rtant” 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,” Rossi said. “I don’t decide yet because some things are better here some things a💎re 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 hypercar꧑ for the 45-year-old as he completed 69 laps in total.

His bes💃t time was second-best in terms of the rookies, just behind Ferrari’s Arthur Leclerc.

Rossi was ౠbuoyed b🦩y how the BMW hypercar handled and saw similarities to his time 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 th🏅e GT for me at the beginning was very difficult, you have to cut everything. Cut outside, cut especially inside [the curbs]. So it’s another way to drive.

“This one is more similar to a bike. Also the speed is higher, but🍬 at the same time you have also more grip.

“So it’s very good and also it’s 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 im🍬prove during the day like this. It wa🔜s good. I enjoyed.”
