The IMC is truly honoured to celebrate the life and achievements of one of the sport’s most influential figures with an event that unites our entire community.

Pleased with his Easter Monday results, Tweed will compete on his new 2026 machines: the Ability Energy Honda Fireblade and the Stanley Stewart Racing (works) Triumph.

WRC to return to UK in 2027 : Rally Scotland

by
WRC Rally Scotland coming in 2027

The FIA World Rally Championship will return to the United Kingdom in 2027 with the introduction of WRC Rally Scotland, marking the series’ comeback to one of rallying’s most historic territories.

Developed in partnership with Motorsport UK, the new gravel-based event will be based in north-east Scotland, with rally headquarters and service park facilities located at the state-of-the-art P&J Live complex in Aberdeen. Stages will run across the surrounding regions of Aberdeenshire and Moray.

The agreement forms an initial three-year deal beginning in 2027 and ends an eight-year absence for the championship in the UK, following the most recent running of Wales Rally GB in 2019.

Scotland’s dramatic landscapes and world-class forest roads are expected to provide a spectacular sporting challenge for the WRC’s leading drivers and manufacturers, while the region’s infrastructure and transport links offer a strong platform for teams, media and fans attending the event.

The rally has been secured through a partnership between Motorsport UK, WRC Promoter and the Scottish Government, with support from Aberdeen City and Aberdeenshire councils. Together, the stakeholders aim to establish Rally Scotland as a major international sporting event delivering significant economic and tourism benefits for the region.

Paul Jordan Re-Signs with Jackson Racing for TT 2026:

Paul Jordan Re-Signs with Jackson Racing for TT 2026: 

Paul Jordan Jackson Racing Isle of Man TT, Paul Jordan Supertwin Podium, Ducati Panigale V2 Road Race Spec.

Magherafelt’s Paul Jordan is staying put for the 2026 Isle of Man TT, confirming a third successive year with the powerhouse Jackson Racing squad. After a stellar 2025 that saw him grab a Supertwin podium and push the front-runners in every class, Jordan is doubling down on the continuity that has made him one of Northern Ireland’s brightest stars on the Mountain Course.

The “no-brainer” deal sees Jordan remain on the machinery that brought him his best-ever results, but with one massive tactical upgrade: he’s switching to a Ducati Panigale V2 for the Supersport class.

Continuity is Key for Jordan

In a sport where jumping between teams can reset a rider’s progress, Paul Jordan is opting for stability. Having spent two years gelling with the Jackson Racing crew—a team that has previously fielded legends like John McGuinness and Dan Kneen—Jordan knows he has the foundation to move from “consistent top-ten finisher” to “permanent podium threat.”

“Continuing with Jackson Racing for a third year was a no-brainer,” Jordan said. “The aim is to build on a strong 2025 season and move up the ladder that bit more. Same team, same crew, and mostly the same bikes gives us a solid foundation.”

Ian Hutchinson TeamRST 2026 Isle of Man TT Superbike

The Official TT safety partner RST have confirmed they are stepping up from the sidelines to the starting grid. The brand has launched TeamRST and they’ve secured the signature of the Ian Hutchinson to lead the way for their 2026 Isle of Man TT Campaign.

With less than 80 days until the flag drops on Glencrutchery Road, this isn’t just a PR exercise. TeamRST is coming to the Mountain Course with one goal – winning.

Hutchinson: The Legend Returns to the Front

For fans of real road racing, Hutchy needs no introduction. A 16-time TT winner, he remains the only man in history to ever claim five victories in a single week (2010). After a few seasons of battling health setbacks and machinery changes, Hutchinson sounds more determined than ever.

“This project is very personal to me,” Hutchinson said at the launch. “After everything I’ve experienced at the TT, I still have that drive to prove we can compete at the very front. We’re aiming for that top spot.”
