"Fast forward on to 2022, an additional 5 people have died during the races, totaling the number of deaths to 265."

The Isle of Man TT sees road racers from around the world gather to test themselves against the incredible ‘Mountain Course’.

The course is a 37.73 mile beast of a course carved out of the island’s public roads.

The event is reportedly often called one of the most dangerous racing events in the world as many competitors have died.
