Clothing brand RST has unveiled its new road racing team, TeamRST, set to compete at this year’s Isle of Man TT under the leadership of legendary racer Ian Hutchinson. With a total of 16 TT wins to his name, Hutchinson will race in the Superbike, Superstock and Senior TT events aboard BMW M1000 RR machines, supported by partner brands Arai helmets, Motul oils, and D3O armour.
Hutchinson said: “This project is very personal to me. After everything I’ve experienced at the TT, I still have that drive to prove we can compete at the very front. Everyone involved has come on this journey with me, and I want it to work for all of us. We’re aiming for that top spot, and I want everyone to get something out of this.”
Stuart Millington, RST vice president, commented: “Launching TeamRST is a defining moment for our brand. We’re doing this with one goal: giving Ian the package he needs to win at this year’s Isle of Man TT. We have been working with Ian for more than 15 years.
He is one of the most accomplished and determined competitors in TT history, and his experience makes him the perfect rider to lead this project.”
