The Manx Grand Prix would not be possible without support given to us by businesses who kindly sponsor our races.

For the 2026 Manx Grand Prix races, the Manx Motorcycle Club would like to thank Road Racing News, Glover Law, Carole Nash and Okell’s.

Road Racing News, run by Steve Rial, his wife Debra and son Stevie, sponsored the Sportbike race, the opening event of this year’s races.

Road Racing News is the world’s biggest online road racing publication, with Steve heading up the photography for the site while Stevie writes and produces all articles.

The race saw Johnny Stewart take his first of four wins ahead of Eddy Wormald in second and newcomer Kevin Lavery in third.

After the race, Steve Rial said: “It was fantastic, great conditions, great people around us.

“Super honoured to be sponsoring the race, and what a result, can't ask for anymore.”

The Supersport race, the second of the event, was sponsored by Glover Law.

Glover Law is a Manx law firm based in Douglas and set up by racing fan Paul Glover.

The firm has strong racing connections as sponsors for the likes of Michael Dunlop and the Crowe brothers, Ryan and Callum.

The Glover Law Supersport race saw Johnny Stewart take his second win of the week while Graham McAleese took second followed by Eddy Wormald in third.

Carole Nash, one of the biggest motorcycle insurance companies were the sponsors of a thrilling Junior Manx Grand Prix.

Johnny Stewart took the victory once again to tie the great Dan Kneen’s record for three wins in a week while local man Dan Sayle finished second with Eddy Wormald completing the podium.

Last but not least are Okell’s, with specific thanks to managing director Ollie Neale and head of marketing Donna Brown.

The legendary Manx brewery were the sponsors for the Senior Manx Grand Prix and the headline sponsors for the whole event.

Their race saw Johnny Stewart make history with his fourth win while Eddy Wormald completed a great week in second with a fourth podium while Graham McAleese finished third.

Everyone at the Manx Motorcycle Club and the Manx Grand Prix would like to thank all sponsors involved, without your help we would not be able to put on our event.

Thank you everyone involved, we hope to see you all next year.
