By Julien Toniutti is all set to compete for the first time at the Isle of Man TT, competing for the Optimark Road Racing outfit.
The last two years have seen Julien establish himself, as one of France’s rising stars around the Mountain Course.
In 2014 he made his pure road racing debut, at the Manx Grand Prix. His first two weeks competition at the Manx, saw him seal tenth and forty second place finishes in the newcomers A and junior races.

His second appearance at the Manx GP in 2015, would see Julien gel more and more with the iconic Mountain Course.
Twenty fifth place finish in the junior race, was backed up by more than creditable thirteenth position in the blue riband senior race, lapping on the fourth and final lap of race in excess of 116 mph.
It’s still to be announced as to the races Julien will be competing in at TT 2016.
One things for sure though, he is hugely capable of recording top draw results, as he bids to become the latest TT star from France.
