AP Racing, a premier manufacturer of high-performance brake and clutch systems, is set to have a commanding presence at the 2025 Le Mans race. The company’s cutting-edge technologies will be featured in the vast majority of vehicles competing in the iconic endurance event. This underscores its critical role in top-tier motorsport.
Key Highlights
- More than 80% of the grid, which is 51 out of 62 cars, will utilize at least one AP Racing component.
- The company will provide essential parts across all three racing categories: Le Mans Hypercar (LMH), LMP2, and LMGT3.
- Every car in the premier LMH category is equipped with at least one AP Racing product.
- The entire LMP2 field relies on the company’s brake pads, discs, and master cylinders.
- A dedicated team of AP Racing engineers will be on-site to provide hands-on technical support to teams throughout the event.
Widespread Integration Across Categories
AP Racing’s influence is evident across the entire spectrum of competition at the Circuit de la Sarthe. The company supplies six different market-leading motorsport components. These include advanced brake calipers, brake pads, brake discs, clutches, master cylinders, and pedal boxes.
In the top-tier LMH category, every competing car uses at least one AP Racing product. Many teams integrate three or four different systems into their vehicles. Furthermore, the entire LMP2 grid depends exclusively on AP Racing for its brake pads, discs, and master cylinders. This shows complete trust in the brand’s capabilities. This dominance extends to the LMGT3 class, where 22 of the 24 teams have chosen to integrate at least one AP Racing system. Additionally, all six reserve machines for the event are equipped with the company’s parts.
Engineered for Extreme Endurance
The Le Mans 24-hour race is one of the most demanding tests in motorsports. AP Racing’s products are specifically engineered to meet these challenges. The components are designed to deliver consistent, high-level performance not only during the 24-hour race. This extends to the intensive practice and qualifying sessions.
For some vehicles, this means withstanding more than 3,000 miles of high-stress driving over the race weekend. With cars regularly achieving speeds that exceed 200 mph, the reliability and durability of braking and clutch systems are essential. Both safety and competitive success depend on this.
Commitment to Team Success
Richard Gregory, Sales Director at AP Racing, stated that the widespread adoption of their products is a testament to the confidence that the world’s top teams have in their technology. He emphasized that Le Mans represents the “ultimate test of endurance, engineering, and teamwork.”
Beyond supplying components, AP Racing shows a deep commitment to its clients. A dedicated team of experienced account engineers will be present in the paddock for the entire event. They will provide crucial, hands-on support. This team offers everything from real-time technical advice to performance optimization to ensure teams feel supported at every stage of the race. As part of the Brembo group, AP Racing continues to push the boundaries of motorsport innovation. They provide teams with a critical advantage on the world’s toughest circuits.
