MGP 2024: Herbertson to contest two classes this year

Hexham rider entered in Classic Junior & Classic Superbike races

Dominic Herbertson is set to compete in two different classes at this year's Manx Grand Prix.

The 33-year-old will contest the reintroduced Classic Junior event on a 350cc Steadplan Honda K4 whilst also mounting a charge on the Classic Superbike race on board a Bob Henderson Racing 750cc ZXR Kawasaki.

The rider from Hexham missed last year's racing at the meeting after being involved in a crash at Lambfell during practice which resulted in a broken ankle.

This year he claimed his first ever podium at the Isle of Man TT Races finishing third in the Supertwin TT Race 1 on 5 June.

Elsewhere, he has previous success in the Classic Junior category having earned victory at the 2018 Classic TT on a Davies Motorsport Honda.

He's made one appearance in the Classic Superbike race in 2022 in which he was a retirement.

The 2024 Manx Grand Prix is scheduled to take place from 18-26 August.
