Douglas won't be hosting its annual downhill soapbox derby this year.
Egaming firm Microgaming, which sponsors the event, announced the news on Twitter.
The event, normally held in September, attracts hundreds of spectators with home-made soapbox karts.
No reason has been given for the cancellation but the company says it's hoping the event will return next year.
We are sad to announce that the breaks have been put on this year’s Douglas Soapbox race.
