Father and son were killed during the Isle of Man TT race, killing five people.
From Klein to Chesher, Roger and Bradley Stockton traveled together as drivers and passengers.
Veteran sprinter Roger has started race number 20 this week, Bradley’s second race.
Isle of Man TT race organizers said the news of his death came with “deep sadness”.
The organizer said: “The loss of two members of the same family as the two members of our paddock is tragic.
“But the father-son connection that made our dreams come true by racing together at the TT gives us a light in such a dark time.”
In the first race of the race, Bradley and Roger finished 8th in the fastest lap at an average speed of 106 mph.
Bradley, 21, was “raised” in the racing community, first stepping onto the track at the age of one.
He was 16 years old when he decided to follow in his father’s footsteps and asked if he could travel with him.
Roger’s first TT race took place in 2000, followed by regular racing for several years.
Earlier this year, a 56-year-old woman said: “I’ve retired several times before, but I always come back to love the sport.
“It’s amazing walking through the field with my flesh and blood.”
The Isle of Man TT, or Tourist Trophy Race, is a motorcycle race held each summer on the Isle of Man.
It has been held almost every year since 1907.
This event is often referred to as one of the most dangerous racing events in the world, as many athletes have died.
So far, five people have died in the 2022 race.
Welsh rider Mark Purslow was killed in qualifying last week, and Northern Ireland’s Dave Morgan was killed in a crash in a supersport race on Monday.
Roger and Bradley collided into Ago’s Leap, and sidecar driver Cesar Chanel was also fatally injured on Saturday.
