Follow Hunts Racing This Season ...

Although he has no plans to race a Honda this season we will be maintaining our involvement as a personal sponsor and are very proud for Michael to be an ambassador for our company, and for him to continue to carry the Hunts logo on his leathers.

Son of the late Robert Dunlop and nephew of Joey, 23 year old Michael is looking forward to legendary road events including the Ulster Grand Prix and the North West 200, and the Ballymoney rider will also be entering the 2011 Isle of Man TT in Junior and Senior classes. Last year Michael showed great form on the Island, finishing 2nd in the Superbike TT, and 2nd and 3rd in the Supersport Junior TT's. For 2011 Michael is hoping to add to his 2009 Junior victory with more race wins. (Webmaster's note : Michael Wins 2011 Royal London Superstock TT by over 18 seconds. Read the race report).

Hunts Motorcycles Managing Director John Brown commented : "We are delighted to be able to help Michael again this year and to continue what has been a great relationship. Michael is young, talented and determined to go all the way and we at Hunts will do all we can to help him do just that. We are really looking forward to being involved and wish him every success".

We will keep you updated on Michael's progress throughout the season.
