Dunlop disqualified from Supersport race

Mon, 06 Jun 2016

Michael Dunlop has been disqualified from today's Supersport race - losing his second place podium position.

It's due to a 'technical infringement' identified during post-race examination.

Race bosses say they don't believe there was a deliberate attempt to gain an unfair advantage and no significant performance advantage was gained.

It means Dean Harrison moves up to second place with James Hillier taking the third podium position.

Another competitor - Rob Hodson - who finished 14th in the race was also disqualified after it was found he was running a "significantly oversized engine".
