As already announced a few days ago, veteran Ian Lougher will come back racing at the Isle of Man TT this year with the charming swiss bike Suter, adding the commitment in the 1000cc classes to his manager role of his Team ILR and his young gun Joey Thompson. But there is more. The 55 years old welshman will compete in the Lightweight class with a Paton and in the TT Zero with Team Mirai’s electric bike as well.
His soft way of speaking and the pretty clear Yorkshire accent made me feel comfortable straight away. In Hutchy’s living room I would have wanted to ask a lot of questions. Too many questions. For the first time after his shock Honda deal, Ian Hutchinson is granting an interview and the subjects couldn’t be other than his recovery after 2017 TT crash and his switch from TAS BMW to Honda Racing.
