IrelandMotorcycle road racing has returned to Ireland after a four-year hiatus, with events recently held in west Cork and Meath. Organizers faced challenges in securing insurance for these events, which had previously led to a suspension of the sport. While the return of road racing has been welcomed by participants and organizers, concerns persist regarding safety, increasing costs, and the sport's long-term viability. Unlike track racing, road racing occurs on closed public roads, making it more challenging and contentious. The resumption of the sport has also reignited discussions around its safety record, particularly after a fatal accident during the Skerries 100 race in July. Despite these issues, organizers emphasize that safety remains their top priority. Rising insurance costs and the impact of Brexit have further complicated the ability to host these events.
