The top 20 starters in the 3-lap Formula One race at the 2025 Classic TT have been revealed. Michael Dunlop is currently on the entry list without a bike.
In August, the race returned on the 37.75-mile mountain course on the Isle of Man, with the classic TT and Manx Grand Prix running in tandem at the end of the month.
The list of entries for all the classes announced has proven to be stacked with talent, and the classic superbike Formula One race is no exception.
Leading the field is Mankslider Nathan Harrison, who is campaigning for the Kawasaki ZXR750 for the Green All Race of the Class.
He follows Dominique Herbertson for the BHR race on the ZXR750, third to the first big hitter in his class.
Mike Brown won last year’s Classic Superbike Race at the Manx Grand Prix at the Ducati 916, and is riding an Italian bike again for his key racing outfit.
Jamie Coward will start at fourth in the Green All Racing ZXR750 Kawasaki and Craig Neve will be fifth in another ZXR750 on CALLMAC scaffolding.
Michael Dunlop is set to start from sixth place, but the winner of the 33 Isle of Man TT has not confirmed his machine for the class.
Dunlop had a Ducati 916 with him at Manx Grand Prix in last year’s classic bike race, but suffered from problems throughout the event.
He was a non-starter in the shortened one-lap classic superbike race that Brown won.
David Johnson came from seventh in the Kawasaki ZXR750 and currently no one was in eighth place, but the spot is reserved for three-time TT winner Davey Todd.
Rob Hodson of the Ducati 916 and Paul Jordan of the Kawasaki ZXR750 completed the top 10.
Brian McCormack follows on the 11th with the ZXR750, while Ian Hutchinson continues on another Kawasaki. Michael Sweeney and Julian Trammer follow more ZXR750s.
Sean Anderson is currently in Norton, the only top 20 on the 15th, but the gap is now set on the 16th.
The final top 20 spots are filled by Suzuki GSXR750 Barry Farber, ZXR750 Joey Gersley, GSXR750 Michael Evans and ZXR750 Amallic Blanc.
