The Isle of Man TT is under way with one of the world's most revered and dangerous motorsport events set to draw in big crowds once again – in person and from the comfort of armchairs across the globe.

Qualifying will be followed by a hot schedule of races across the island, with roads shut down as riders tackle the gruelling, daring 37-mile track at tops speeds close to 200mph, and average speeds across the whole track up to 130mph, potentially beyond.

The race is not for the faint-hearted – to watch or to participate in – with a tragic record of fatalities throughout its 101 editions so far since the inaugural race in 1907.

Six riders or sidecar passengers died in the 2022 event, while 11 people were killed in the 2005 Isle of Man TT, the most deadly edition on record.

1982 was the only year that TT races were held without a fatality since 1934, but organisers have said they are "in a much more proactive position" to address safety concerns this time out.
