Friends 'devastated' in emotional tributes to Roger and Bradley Stockton killed in Isle of Man TT crash

Tributes have been paid to a father-and-son duo who died in a tragic Isle of Man TT crash. Roger Stockton, 56, and his 21-year-old son Bradley, both from Crewe, died after an incident at Ago’s Leap just under one mile into the final lap of their second race at the event on Friday (June 10).

Following their passing, which sadly takes this year's TT's death toll to five competitors, tributes have been paid to the pair, CheshireLive reports. Shavington-based ABP Motorsport, where Bradley worked, posted on Facebook: "The whole ABP family are absolutely devastated to share the news that ‘our Brad’ has sadly lost his life during today's TT sidecar race.

"Following an accident on the 2nd lap both Brad and his dad Roger have sadly passed away. Brad was just 21 and was taking part in a sport that he loved - he was funny, brave, annoying, loved, brilliant, handsome and had his whole life ahead of him. He left us today alongside his father - pursuing a dream, a passion that brought both glory & danger."
