Bad blood, new machinery and an alliance could shake up the 2025 Isle of Man TT, with record-holder Michael Dunlop the man with a target on his back. Peter Hickman, who holds the Mountain Course lap record, and rising star Davey Todd have formed a super team under the 8TEN Racing banner, and they both have an axe to grind with Dunlop.
Read on and we'll explain how you can watch Isle of Man TT live streams from anywhere with a VPN — and potentially for FREE.
The 2025 Isle of Man TT runs from Monday, May 26 to Saturday, June 7. Full schedule below.
• FREE HIGHLIGHTS — ITVX (U.K.)

• Watch anywhere — Try NordVPN 100% risk free
Dunlop, who smashed his late, legendary uncle Joey's record of 26 TT victories last year by winning both of the Supersport and Supertwin races — putting him on 29 — rubbed both Hickman and Todd the wrong way at the North West 200 earlier this month.
Both Dunlop and Hickman cut a chicane in the Superbike race, but while Hickman stopped for the customary 10-second penalty, Dunlop didn't and ended up passing Todd to cross the line in first. The controversy didn't end there. A 10-second penalty was imposed retrospectively, making Todd the victor, but was then rescinded.
With the three riders, along with Dean Harrison, set to face off across the Supersport, Supersport, Supertwin and Superbike categories, we're expecting things to get heated. That Dunlop is still getting used to his new machinery further deepens the intrigue.
In the Sidecar, Ben Birchall has turned to Patrick Rosney in a bid to stave off Crowe brothers Ryan and Callum, and recapture the glories of the Birchall brothers era.
