The Asian Le Mans Cup is an Asian sports car racing endurance series created by the Automobile Club de l'Ouest (ACO) and based in Asia. It is a support series for the Asian Le Mans Series.
History The series was announced at the 2026 24 Hours of Le Mans weekend and will continue running LMP3 cars in Asia after they were removed from the Asian Le Mans Series. It is the first "sub-series" organised in Asia by the ACO/LMEM since the Asian Le Mans Sprint Cup in 2017.
Format The Asian Le Mans Cup is similar to the Le Mans Cup that races in Europe with both LMP3 and GT3 cars eligible.
Classes There are two classes for LMP3 cars, LMP3 and LMP3 Pro/Am. LMP3 is for FIA Gold and Silver drivers, while LMP3 Pro/Am must have at least one Bronze driver. GT3 also requires one Bronze driver in the line-up. Platinum rated drivers are not eligible to compete in the Asian Le Mans Cup.
