and live on Freeview channel 276
No national events have taken place in the Republic of Ireland since 2019, while the Cookstown 100 was the only Irish road race meeting that went ahead in 2020.
This year, Armoy made a welcome return to the calendar in the summer, while the Cookstown 100 also proceeded on a rescheduled date in September after the Co Tyrone event was postponed from April.

Plans are also afoot to rescue the Ulster Grand Prix and restore the historic Dundrod meeting to the calendar in 2022 after it was hit by a financial crisis in 2019.
A number of milestone dates are on the horizon, with the Cookstown 100 and Ulster Grand Prix set to celebrate 100 years, while the Tandragee 100 will aim to mark its 60th anniversary in May.
The Mid Antrim 150, last held in 2016, is also slated for a comeback next year.
Further afield, it is hoped that racing will return on the Isle of Man with the TT, Southern 100 and Classic TT and Manx Grand Prix meetings, which haven’t taken place since 2019.
