The Official Launch of the 2019 Isle of Man TT Races fuelled by Monster Energy takes place this week with an influx of star riders, media representatives, industry personnel and event sponsors set to descend on the Isle of Man for three busy days of photo shoots, TV work, interviews and other media activity.

Event organisers will be making a number of exciting announcements during the day on Tuesday 19th March including the confirmation of this year’s race entry and starting numbers, details of new music and comedy events as part of the Official Event Schedule and details of a major new event sponsor.
