Born in Lusk, County Dublin, Finnegan took up riding from a young age. At first he went grass track racing where he tasted success. In his later teens his boss at the time, Tony Carton, offered Martin the lend of a bike to try his hand at circuit racing. They went out that day and Martin did almost 100 laps and caught the bug. 

A winner of 43 Irish road races since 1997, in addition to winning the 2000 Junior Newcomers Manx Grand Prix, Finnegan scored a podium at the 2005 TT where he became the fastest Irishman to lap the course at over 127 mph. Finnegan was tragically killed in a crash in the Supersport 600 race of the 2008 Tandragee 100 when his front brake failed.
