Steve Plater backing plans for Diamond Races
Two-time TT winner Steve Plater is one of the people behind plans for a road race on the Isle of Wight in October 2021.
A 12.4 mile course has been identified in the south of the Island and the meeting will be known as the Diamond Races.
The planned event has support from the Isle of Wight Council.
Mr Plater says his involvement came about from a phone call from former Honda racing boss Neil Tuxworth:
