There will be a rally at the end of October after all.
The Manx Auto Sport Stages Rally will take place on the same dates vacated by the cancelled Manx International event.
A different organisation is taking on the challenge, and there will be no Castletown stages and fewer road closures.
It has the full backing of the Departments of infrastructure and economic development.
Manx Auto Sport Limited chairman Mark Ellison says it's important the Isle of Man is seen to promote motorsport:
Davey Todd wins 2025 Macau Grand Prix
2024 Senior TT winner wins in Zeeco BMW Motorrad one-two
FC Isle of Man to welcome high-flying West Didsbury & Chorlton
Ravens looking to bounce back from first defeat in six last weekend
Hockey: Mixed cup semi-finals on the cards this weekend
Last-four ties of three competitions to take place
Rugby: Vagabonds to host Dukinfield
Island side still looking for first win this season
