Davey Todd Out of 2026 TT Races :
A statement from the Official TT Page has confirmed that Davey Todd has been ruled out of the 2026 Isle of Man TT Races.
This will be an awful blow to DT who also missed out on the North West 200 last week, however hopefully TTPlus is listening and manages to talk him into the commentary team, he was brilliant on the BBC Coverage of the NW200.
TODD DECLARED UNFIT FOR TT 2026
Davey Todd has been declared medically unfit to compete in the 2026 Isle of Man TT Races by the event’s Medical Team following assessment of the injuries sustained during an incident at the Daytona 200 in March and ongoing review of his recovery.
Todd sustained multiple injuries in the accident, including fractures to his femur, tibia, foot and nose. Following initial surgery in the United States, he subsequently underwent an intensive rehabilitation programme at a specialist recovery clinic in Italy.
Throughout this period, Todd has remained in regular contact with the TT Medical Team, with ongoing cooperation between his treating clinicians and Manx Roadracing Medical Services (MRMS) – the organisation responsible for providing medical services for the Isle of Man TT Races on behalf of ACU Events Ltd.
While Todd’s rehabilitation and functional recovery have progressed positively in recent weeks, a detailed review conducted by a panel of specialists in Emergency Medicine, Orthopaedics, and Trauma Surgery concluded that the injuries sustained would not recover sufficiently in advance of the event to safely withstand the exceptional physical demands associated with competition on the TT Course.
Speaking on the decision, Todd said:
“I’m absolutely gutted to say I’m not going to be on the start line for TT 2026, especially given all the work that’s gone in over the last nine weeks.
“I’ve done everything possible to get myself into a position to race, and I’m so grateful to everyone involved in my treatment at Formula Medicine in Italy, plus the awesome support from BMW Motorrad, Monster Energy, and all the amazing people around me.
“We’ve left no stone unturned and tried everything possible with the goal of being back for the TT, but unfortunately we’ve just run out of time.”
“The focus now shifts to next year so I can come back stronger than ever. In the meantime, I’ll be supporting my 8TEN Racing team from the sidelines.”
