Where to watch infamous Isle of Man TT, when the event begins plus history and route details
How to watch the Isle of Man TT, live and highlights, and when the event begins.
For more than a century, the Isle of Man TT has pushed motorcycle racing to its absolute limit. First held in 1907, the TT - short for Tourist Trophy - takes place on closed public roads across the tiny island between England and Ireland.
The course itself is legendary: a brutal 37.73-mile mountain circuit packed with more than 200 corners, stone walls, villages, blind crests, and narrow streets. Riders average over 130 miles per hour… and on the fastest sections, bikes can exceed 200 miles an hour.
The current lap record belongs to Peter Hickman, who averaged an astonishing 136.3 miles per hour for an entire lap.
But the TT’s danger is what makes it infamous. It’s widely considered the world’s most dangerous motorcycle race.
Over 260 fatalities have been recorded on the Mountain Course overall, and yet every year, riders still return - chasing speed, glory, and a place in one of motorsport’s most fearless traditions.
The infamous Isle of Man TT will begin next week (25 May) - running until 6 June.
