* Austria’s top international road racer Julian Trummer has parted ways with Lion Heart Moto Racing. Trummer stated via Facebook, why he’s taken this decision.
“After careful consideration, I’ve decided that I won’t be competing at this year’s Isle of Man TT with Lionheart Moto Racing. The team and I have mutually agreed to end our collaboration.
This decision was anything but easy. Anyone who knows me knows how deeply my heart beats for the TT. Weeks and months of preparation, full of hope, passion, and drive…
But sometimes, only in the final moments does it become clear whether everything truly fits – technically, personally, emotionally. And this time, it just wasn’t enough to give me the trust I need on the bike.
I want to thank the team for the time we shared and wish them all the best in the future.”
