Impressions from the Isle of Man TT Races 2023

The Isle of Man Tourist Trophy (IOMTT) is the ultimate event for all motorsport lovers across the world. It can’t be crazier than that! Here a few pictures and videos from the IOMTT 2023 usually taking place during the months of May and June. Enjoy the Heroes on two wheels!

The Tourist Trophy Races are an important income source for the Isle of Man with approximately 40’000 visitors annually. The length of the Circuit is 60.718 km on narrow streets, often bordered on the left and right with hedges and stone walls. The individual races last two to four laps with an average speed of more than 215 km/h. In short, it is the world’s most dangerous Motorcycle Race with over 266 fatalities in its 116-year history! I don’t know, is it coincidence, intention or just English humor, the Start and Finish line of the Races is opposite the cemetery; this should remind the Riders of their acute danger of death at every passage!
