TT winners confirmed for Macau Grand Prix

Hickman and Todd return to Grand Prix meeting but no Rutter

TT winners Peter Hickman and Davey Todd will be taking part in this year's Macau Grand Prix.

The 8TEN racing owners and team-mates had been hinting they wouldn't be competing this year due to logistical reasons however the pair has confirmed they will be back for the event, which takes place in mid-November. 

Last year's meeting was washed out due to torrential rain. 

Someone who won't be there is nine-times Macau Grand Prix winner Michael Rutter; he's still recovering from his crash at this year's TT. 

The official Macau Motorcycle Grand Prix entry list is due to be confirmed within the next fortnight. 

Entries for the event closed earlier this month with two Manx riders, Michael Evans and Marcus Simpson, reported to be taking part among the 20-strong entry list.
