Can the Istari be considered a 'race'?

Personally I am against this, but I have read a few Middle-Earth inspired RPGs and stories online which consider the Istari a 'race', like the Elves or Dwarves of Middle-Earth.

Do you consider 5 old men a 'race' or did Tolkien write somewhere in one of his books (which I don't possess, like the Histories of Middle-Earth series) about this topic?

Thanks

Some time later and a few dead wolf packs...

"What did I tell you, Mr.Pippin?" said Sam, sheathing his sword. "Wolves won't get him. That was an eye-opener, and no doubt. Nearly singed the hair off my head!"
