Manx Radio lose TT Commentary Rights

Fri, 18 Feb 2022

Manx Radio will no longer be producing the TT Radio commentary as the Department for Enterprise has taken the production of Radio TT ‘in-house’.

Manx Radio will also no longer have the exclusive rights to the commentary as the Department has offered the new live feed to other broadcasters including Energy FM.

The new sound TT radio commentary will be anchored by Steve Day, well known to fans of MotoGP and World Superbikes.

Other names joining the commentary will be local freelance sports commentators such as Chris Boyde and Chris Kinley along with a number of former TT riders who will join the on air Team.

Full live coverage on Energy FM from the Official Commentary Team

Energy FM will, for the first time, be able to bring you the complete live practice and racing commentary, in full on our Digital platforms.

On our FM frequencies, we will bring you the official live feeds from the new Commentary Team, with updates, the live pre-race build up and start, together with live coverage throughout the practices and races.

The changes come about as part of a huge shake up of broadcast arrangements for the TT which inlcude the addition of live television coverage produced by Greenlight Television.
