TT competitor Dominic Herbertson has agreed a deal to join the WTF (We're The Future) Racing team for 2025.

Announcing the news this afternoon (28 September) the crew's confirmed the Hexham man will join James Hillier for the squad's road racing commitments next year.

Both riders will run Honda Fireblade machinery in the Superbike and Superstock classes along with CBR600RR's in the Supersport categories.

Team Owner, Alan Gardner says Herbertson is someone he's 'supported for a while' and is 'very happy to finally sign Dom officially.'

Along with his regular racing commitments, Hillier is also targeting a return to the grueling Dakar Rally with the squad in 2025 having started and finished the event on his debut there in 2023.
