Classic TT to commemorate iconic motorsport figure

This years Classic TT will host an event to commemorate one of the all-time greats of motorsport.

A celebration lap will be held remembering the career of John Surtees CBE - the only man to win world championships on both two and four wheels.

2020 will mark the 60th anniversary of his final TT race where he won the senior race to clinch a sixth title at the tournament.

The occasion on Saturday, August 29, will feature some of the bikes which are closely linked with his name such as the 1960 MV Agusta, 1949 Vincent Grey Flash and the Vincent Black Lightning.
