2018 Isle of Man TT
The 2018 Isle of Man TT was held between 26 May and 8 June, on the Isle of Man TT Mountain Course.
Michael Dunlop scored 3 wins during the event, increasing his TT win tally to 18. Peter Hickman took his first two TT wins, including one at the prestigious Senior TT, taking a new outright lap record of 135.452 mph (217.989 km/h) in the process. The Birchall brothers took the two Sidecar races and a new lap record, becoming the first crew to lap the course in under 19 minutes. Dean Harrison and Michael Rutter took one TT each.
23-times TT winner John McGuinness was a major absentee for the second year in a row, due to serious injuries sustained at the 2017 North West 200. Two times 2017 Isle of Man TT winner Ian Hutchinson was also recovering from serious leg injuries sustained during the 2017 Senior TT, and failed to score a single top 10 in 2018.
The event was marred by the death of two riders, 2017 TT podium finisher Dan Kneen, and TT newcomer Adam Lyon. In the aftermath of Kneen's crash, Steve Mercer suffered serious, career-ending injuries after being hit head-on by a course car travelling in the opposite direction.
