Tommy Hill is a former British motorcycle road racer, born 9 February 1985 in Beckenham, Kent. His greatest success was becoming the British Superbike Champion for 2011.[1] He also competed in the World Superbike and World Supersport championships.

Hill quit motorcycle racing at the end of 2012, instead started working as a self-employed graphic designer,[2] but announced in late 2014 that he would be running a British Superbike team during 2015.[3]

After several months of his first season as a team manager with Be Wiser Kawasaki, Hill left in August 2015,[4] and the team folded in September.[5] Hill announced in October 2015 that he would be running his own team named THM – Tommy Hill Motorsport – for 2016 with Yamaha R1 machines,[6][7] backed by ePayMe, with riders John Hopkins and Stuart Easton.
