Ivan George Lintin[1] (born 17 August 1984) is a motorcycle racer from Bardney, Lincolnshire who regularly competes in the Isle of Man TT races.[2]

In 2016, he scored his second win in the Lightweight TT.[3]

In 2018 Lintin was leading the Lightweight TT race with a growing lead on his way to a third TT victory, when later in the race an engine failure brought retirement. Michael Dunlop went on to claim his first win in that race category.

Lintin suffered severe injuries during the 2018 Southern 100 road races in the Isle of Man involving another three riders, one of whom, James Cowton, died. Lintin required emergency treatment on the island subsequently followed by surgery and lengthy intensive care at Liverpool.[4]
