I can't see much past Hutchy for all three of the 1000cc races TBH. Dunlop will wring the neck of that new GSX-R, but I don't think that it's up to speed yet. Saying that, neither is Guy Martin on the Honda.
The Supersport and lightweight races are going to be fairly open IMO. Assuming that they finish, the TT ZERO will be won by Mugen.
I have no idea about the side cars.

If Hutchy is on it, he'll do the lot.

Looking forward to seeing if Brookes can get the Norton into a top 10.

Guy Martin looks well spooked there. That was a whopper.
Gutted for Hillier there.
I know he was a couple of minutes adrift, but fair play to Rutter.

What a race ! Not the two horse race as predicted. Hutchy, Hillier, Hickman, Harrison, in fact if your name wasn't a capital H you weren't in the hunt. The pit stops seemed to be the main difference, gutted for James Hillier as his seem to have been particularly slow. Dunlop was looking quick till he retired but fuck sakes, Guy Martin, You don't do slow speed tumbles at the TT do you? A false neutral is a nightmare scenario at the TT as there is no room for error at todays speeds. Guy must have waved to fairies this year to get away with that one. Not sure if we'll see all the races completed this week as the weather isn't looking great. Once again the ITV4 coverage is superb  |

Once again the ITV4 coverage is superb Sure is. Some of the on board stuff is just too good. Makes it even more amazing. |

Did anyone see the interview with Guy Martin and the Honda team manager. How awkward was that? Neither of them seemed confident that the bike is safe to use on Friday. I hope Guy doesn't ride it, it won't be competitive so he's got nothing to gain but an awful lot to lose.

What about that sidecar passenger who it looks like broke a rib mid race? That must have been a right bitch.

I'm made up for Micky Rutter. That was a good scrap.
Pete Hickman having a great week.

I've actually enjoyed watching the sidecars this year and it got wondering why they don't run the 1000cc F1 outfits at TT? Is the course too bumpy and dangerous for the speeds involved?

Hutchy broke his femur, transferred to Liverpool. Is it okay to be a little relieved by that news? When I heard he'd been moved, I feared it was his previously injured lower leg. I don't know how he'd fare if he were to damage that again. |

Nice to see Guy Martin so happy as his TT event ends this year. He dodged one this week, that's for sure.
