John McGuinness joins Norton for TT 2018

Wed, 07 Feb 2018

23-time TT race winner John McGuinness will ride for Norton at this year's Isle of Man TT.

The team has announced McGuinness will race in the Superbike and Senior TT.

The 45-year-old missed last year's TT after a crash at the North West 200 left him with serious injuries including compound leg fractures and broken vertebrae.

McGuinness hasn't raced since the crash in Northern Ireland, but expects to be ready for this year's TT.

John Brookes will be McGuinness's teammate after Norton announced he'll return for a second year earlier this week.
