Entries open for 2024 Manx Grand Prix

An expanded six-race schedule is being brought in this year

Entries have now opened for the 2024 Manx Grand Prix.

Riders are now being invited to submit applications to take part in the meeting on the Snaefell Mountain Course which will run from 18-26 August.

The event's organisers - the Manx Motor Cycle Club - are encouraging potential competitors to sign up online.

Last year marked the centenary year of the meeting and since then an expanded six-race schedule has been confirmed for 2024.

Among the changes, a three-lap Classic Junior MGP Race will return to the roster for the first time since 2019.

Meanwhile, a 'Clubman Racing' system is being brought in which will see riders either designated as 'TT' or 'Clubman' status.

'TT' status will be given to riders who've had entries accepted for this year's Isle of Man TT Races whilst 'Clubman' will be designated for those outside of that category.

Those with Clubman status will be able to compete for a specific set of awards this year in the Lightweight, Classic Junior, Classic Senior and Classic Superbike races.
