Isle of Man TT organisers have announced a second change to Thursday’s racing schedule following a red flag incident in the Sidecar contest.
Organisers had already been forced to activate their road closure contingency for this Thursday due to Tuesday’s racing being cancelled because of poor weather. Further rain threats on Thursday led to the schedule being revamped to bring the racing forward, with the second Sidecar contest of the week getting away at 10:30am BST. However, following an incident for newcomer outfit Todd Ellis and Emmanuelle Clement on lap one, the race was red flagged.
The Sidecar race has been rescheduled to 2pm local time, with the Supersport race pushed back to 3:15pm. Racing is set to run through to Saturday, with two more events – the second Superstock and second Supertwin races – on Friday and the Senior TT finale the following day. Four races have been run so far this week, with two of the won by Michael Dunlop.
