I don’t have live access to browse news right now, but here’s the latest I can share based on recent publicly reported updates prior to today:
Key update
- Davey Todd has been ruled medically unfit to compete in the 2026 Isle of Man TT and the 2026 North West 200 due to injuries sustained in a Daytona crash in March. A panel of specialists concluded he couldn’t recover quickly enough to safely ride on the demanding courses.[1][2][3]
Additional context
- Todd previously joined Dafabet Racing for TT duties and had been actively targeting a comeback in 2026, but the medical assessments have shifted focus to 2027 and beyond as the next strong return window.[5]
- The medical decisions emphasize safety given the severity of his injuries (femur, tibia, foot, and nose) and the extended rehabilitation required, even as his overall recovery has shown progress.[2][3][1]
What this means for Todd’s 2026 season
- Expect him to be on the sidelines for major events this year, with his team and supporters planning for a comeback in 2027 if recovery continues on track.[3][1][2]
If you’d like, I can try to fetch the most up-to-date confirmations or provide a quick summary of each source’s key points. I can also look for any statements from Davey Todd or his team about 2027 plans and potential appearances in non-TT events. Would you like me to look further?
