Both the sidecar races at the 2026 Isle of Man TT have been cancelled for this year due to safety concerns after a recent series of accidents – thought to have possibly been due to the design and high speed of the latest TT sidecars rather than driver error.
Boris and Marin Motorsport have a financial proposal to help out the sidecar teams who are not going to be racing now due to the suspension of the racing for this year.

Front fender rubbed with new Hoosier's.

Scavenger a skid plate off a old BMW 650GS and here's the end result. Looking factory. 😆 🏁

Absolutely terrible news for the sport.

STATEMENT ISSUED AT 12:15 ON 28 MAY 2026

STATEMENT ON BEHALF OF THE ISLE OF MAN TT RACES

Following an incident involving a Sidecar team during the third Qualifying Session of the 2026 Isle of Man TT Races, the Race Organisation initiated an immediate technical and operational review to assess the circumstances surrounding the incident and the continued participation of the Sidecar class at the event.

Following that review, in conjunction with the Event Promoter, a decision has been taken to suspend the Sidecar class for the remainder of the 2026 Isle of Man TT Races.

This precautionary measure has been implemented in the interests of competitor and spectator safety and reflects the Race Organisation’s commitment to reviewing all aspects of event safety and operational delivery whenever an incident occurs.

All sidecar competitors and teams involved in the event have been briefed by Race Officials on the outcome of the initial review and the next stages of the assessment process.

We recognise the long-standing history of Sidecar racing at the TT, together with the commitment of the competitors, teams and supporters involved in the class. This decision has not been taken lightly. However, the safety of competitors, spectators, marshals, officials and all those involved in the event must remain the priority.

Further updates will be provided in due course through official Isle of Man TT Races channels.
