Classic TT, Manx Grand Prix practice scheduled for this evening

Tue, 21 Aug 2018

Clerk of the Course Gary Thompson posted pictures of the foggy conditions on social media yesterday.

Practice for the Classic TT and Manx Grand Prix is due to continue this evening after yesterday's postponement.

Foggy conditions on the Mountain Road meant yesterday's schedule had to be put back to tonight.

Roads are due to close around the TT course at 6pm before the session gets underway at 6.20pm, although the weather conditions could be a factor again today.

MGP Senior and Junior bikes, as well as Lightweight and Superbike entrants for the Classic will be due out first, followed by Classic TT Junior and Senior machines alongside the MGP Lightweight and Ultra Lightweight bikes.

MGP newcomers will take part in a lap accompanied by experienced riders at the end of practice, with roads due to reopen no later than 9pm.
