Isle of Man TT winner provides road racing future update: ‘I’m not
Lee Johnston, a one-time Isle of Man TT winner, stated that a return to road racing is not imminent but clarified that he is not retiring. He has been absent from road racing since a severe crash at the 2023 North West 200. Despite plans to compete in 2024, further injury setbacks have sidelined him, focusing instead on the British Supersport Championship this year. Johnston emphasized that he will not return to road racing unless an unforeseen opportunity arises with a different team, as his current team is not pursuing such events. Reflecting on the physical demands of racing, especially at the Isle of Man TT, Johnston expressed that his body is not currently prepared for the challenges of road racing.
