Michael Rutter’s new role as a team manager in British Superbikes cast doubt on his future at the Isle of Man TT, something he has c꧂larified.

Rutter will become team manager at the Bathams Ra🦩cing by AJN team next season, as the team ಌsteps up to BSB and brings in Storm Stacey to ride its BMW M1000 RR.

However, this doesn’t seem to have impacted Rutter’s own racing commitme🔥nts on the roads.

“No,” Rutter responded when asked by Manx Radio whether his new role in the Bat🌸hams Racing team would mean he’s stepping away from road racing and in particular the TT.

“Obviously, we’re still sponsoring Craig Neveꦯ, we’ll still be there, and I’ll still be there doing something,

“I don’t know what ye𒅌t. I’ve been thinking about different stuff over the last few weeks, obviously with the time scales of everything and to do the North West [200] and the Isle of Man [TT].

“But we’ll definitely be there, bigger than ever.

Rutter added: “I’ll definitely bꦫe riding, [but] I don’t know what yet.”

On the deal between the Bathams team and Storm Stacey to race BSB in 2025, Rutter said: “It all came♔ together quite quickly, actually. We were talking at the end of the year at Brands Hatch, I spoke to Storm [Stacey], and he was interested in riding. So, we put something together for him.

“It’s going to be our first year in Superbikes, with the Bathams team, and obviously with AJN sponsoring us as well🌟, it✤’s allowed us to do it.”
