Daytona International Speedway, where the race will be held
NASCAR founder Bill France Sr. , who built Daytona International Speedway in 1959, conceived of the 24 Hours of Daytona to attract European sports-car endurance racing to the United States and provide international exposure to the speedway.[ 2] It is informally considered part of the Triple Crown of Endurance Racing, with the 12 Hours of Sebring and the 24 Hours of Le Mans .[ 3]
International Motor Sports Association (IMSA) president John Doonan confirmed the race was a part of the 2025 IMSA SportsCar Championship (IMSA SCC) in March 2024.[ 4] It will be the twelfth consecutive year it will be a part of the IMSA SCC, and the 63rd 24 Hours of Daytona.[ 4] The 24 Hours of Daytona will be the first of eleven scheduled sports car endurance races by IMSA, and the first of five races on the Michelin Endurance Cup (MEC).[ 4] The race take place at the 12-turn 3.56-mile (5.73 km) Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida from January 25 to 26.[ 4]
