Valerian Racing Engines is an racing team formed by the end of 1987, formed by Mikael Valerian.

History

The team started as a small club racing team, with mediocre results. In 1995, however, there was a slot opened for Rejects-1 so they took it and they went until the bust of the series in 1997. They also managed Larrousse in the late 80s. In 2008, the team was resurected, and competed in GT Open France until 2014, when they started to get interested in a F1 slot, so they started a GP2 team. They finally got an F1 slot in 2017, and they are now looking for an F1RWRS team in the near future. They also expanded themselves to several other operations, and in 2018 they got a deal with Venturi to jointly manage an F1RWRS effort in 2018.
