Jackson Racing have announced their strongest ever TT line up with Australian Josh Brookes joining Paul Jordan for the 2025 campaign.
Both Brookes and Jordan will be contesting the Superbike, Senior and Superstock TT races aboard the Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP, whilst they will be racing the Supersport TT races on a Honda CBR600RR.
Brookes lapped at 134.056mph last year on his way to finishing a superb second in the Senior TT, becoming the fifth fastest rider ever around the 37 and 3/4-mile Mountain Course.
“With racing a Honda in BSB this season, I wanted to keep that continuity at the roads as well and whilst I had a few options, I’ve ridden with Alan and his team before and I’ve been in touch with him quite a bit with the bike I’ve built and been riding in Australia,” said Brookes.
“The team have got good bikes and equipment and are very eager to make the right steps to not only give me the best but also the whole team. I think that’s quite important, and it gives me confidence that they’re motivated to keep pushing forward, so it seemed like the right move.”

“After a good first season together, it feels great to be continuing with Jackson Racing for 2025; there’s nothing I would change with the team set-up – the atmosphere is brilliant,” added Jordan.
“There’s a lot of experience in the team and that combined with the machinery and my own performance helped us have a strong TT 2024. At the same time, I know there’s room for improvement and I want to keep moving forward and edge ever closer to the front runners.
“I want more as a rider and having made a big jump with the big bike last year, I’ll be looking for more of the same in 2025.
“I’m hoping I’ll be seeded on the big bike this year and by getting away in practice with the top guys, I’ll pick up some pointers and improve – the lap’s there in me, I just need to make sure I string it all together.
“Staying with the team for another year is brilliant for me and I’m looking forward to seeing what we can achieve together.”
Team owner Alan Jackson added: “We know we can collectively improve in 2025, and that must be the aim. The new season will bring with it new targets and we’re excited to see what we can achieve with both riders so a big thank you to all the sponsors for keeping the wheels rolling.”
