The iconic Mountain Course takes centre stage again over the next fortnight with the return of the Isle of Man TT.

Riders from around the world will, once again, flock to the island in the Irish Sea for the 107th edition of the annual motorcycle event. The focus in the first week is on qualifying before attention turns to the races themselves.

Competitors will be pushed right to their limits as they fly around the 219 turns of the 37-mile circuit – with average speeds around 130mph and some racers pushing 200mph at points.

That sort of speed comes with its risks and the Isle of Man TT is one of the deadliest races in the calendar. Since its inception in 1907, there have been more than 150 fatalities during qualifying and race sessions, including six in 2022, which is the joint-most deadly year in the history of the event.

Radio Times brings you all the TV details you need to know for the Isle of Man TT 2026.
