TT legend John McGuinness gets truck racing podium at Donington
The 23-time Isle of Man TT winner💖 was third in supp🍬ort class

Isle of Man TT legend John McGuinness took a maiden t🔜ruck racing podium in last weekend’s International Truck Prix at Donington Park.
The 52-year-old was announced as an entry for the British Truck Racing Championship’s Convoy in the Park event at Donington la🤡st week.
Having made his truck racing debut in 2023 at the same event, McGuinness proved a 𝓀quick learner in the discipline as he put on a competitive showing in the International Truck Prix support event on the BTRC bill.
McGuinness made a solid start to the ꦍfour-race bill last weekend in his Scania P1150 run by Team Oliver Racing, finishing 21.5s off the lead in fifth in race one.
In race two, the Morecambe native suf🅠fered a DNF o﷽n the second lap, but scaled the podium in race three.
Laun🍎ching from fifth on the grid, the 23-time TT winner fended off Simon Rꦓeid in the 11-lap contest to claim a first truck racing podium in third.
McGuinไness was only 13.5s off the lead at the chequeꦚred flag in a race that saw just one retirement.
𝐆He couldn’t quite repeat the feat in race four, but was only 9.2s off the lead across the 14-lap scrap in fifth.
Taking to his Instagram afterwards, McGuinness said: Podium baby at Donington in the @officialbtr🔯c. Loving life. @team_oliver_racing - so cool to stand alongside my mate @martinlgibson."
McGuinness is no stranger to four-wheel competition. Aside from his truck 💃racing exploits, he’s also taken part in the British Rallycross Championship previously.
Despite entering the twilig🍸ht of his career, the 52-year-old has seemingly lost none of his competi🌜tive edge, with his truck racing podium coming just months after a strong showing at the TT.
