Isle of Man TT legend Michael Dunlop will transfer his road racing pedigree to the FIM Endurance World Championship in 2024 after signing for Superstock squad TRT27.
Dunlop, from Northern Ireland, has 25 Isle of Man TT victories to his name – only his famous uncle, the late Joey Dunlop, has more wins with 26. And his inclusion in TRT27’s Honda-powered EWC attack adds further intrigue to the eagerly anticipated season, the 10th promoted by Warner Bros. Discovery Sports.
TRT27 head Eric Tanésie said: We have the honour to have the legend of the TT, Michael Dunlop. He has ridden for the TT legends team in EWC before and has high ambition to have a successful 24 Heures Motos at Le Mans.
In addition to new recruit Dunlop, TRT27 has signed Ben Luxton, the 2020 British 600 Superstock champion to join existing riders and fellow Britons Tom Oliver and Tom Ward.
The 47th running of the 24 Heures Motos opens the 2024 EWC season from 18-21 April at Le Mans in France. Ticket information is available HERE.
