🅘Veteran Isle of Man TT racer Michael Rutter suffered multiple fractures in a crash during the 2025 event but “the worst of his injuries have been treated successfully”.

The 53-year-old was com𓄧peting in the Su🔥pertwin class only at the TT this year, as he scaled back his own racing involvements to better focus on running other areas of the Bathams team.

Finishing 10th in the first Supertwin race of the 2025 event on a Yama♐ha, Rutter crashed on the final lap o🎉f the class’s second contest on Friday.

He was taken by air ambulance to Nobles Hospital for treatment, where he was initially reported as “conscious and breathing”, before be💯ing transfꦗerred to Aintree Hospital.

The Bathams team has now issued a positive update on Rutter,﷽ detailing the extent of his injuries but no🤪ting that he has already been treated for the worst of them.

“We are very happy to provide 🌃an update on Michael’s condition following his accident during the Supertwin race on Friday,” the statement began.

“🐎He suffered a number of fractures in his sp✨ine between the L2 and L5 vertebrae.

“After being airl🍨ifted to the Walton Unit at Aintree Hospita♔l, surgeons have successfully stabilised all the fractures and Michael has already been able to mobilise on his feet.

“He requires more ꦰsurgery in his ankle to repair a further fracture there, but for now the worst of his injuries have been treated successfully.

“Michael and the rest of the team wou𝔉ld like to say a huge thank you to all the messages of well wishes and of course all the medical staff at Aintree and the Walton Unit.

“We will𒁃 provide more♉ details on his recovery in due course.”

The Isle of Man TT issued an update on several other injured riders on Sunday, with one - Jonathan Goetschy - reported as being in a “serious but stable” conditio🌃n.

The 2025 isle of Man TT concluded on Saturday with no Senior TT t꧅aking place owing to dangerous wind conditions on the course.

The final race of the event was due to run over six laps from 10:45am local time onꩵ Saturday 7 June, but was delayed numerous times as a result of poor weather.

Pencilled in for🐼 a 7pm start over four laps, consensus from riders following an inspection lap was that the wind was too strong and unꦯpredictable to safely race in.

Just before the scheduled 7pm start time, the Clerk of the Course announc🉐ed that the ꧒race had been abandoned.

Due to limited road closure availability and a poor weather forecast, it was unable to be postpone🥂d to Sunday.

It was the only race of the eveꦅnt that didn’t run.
