One-hour delay to MGP schedule

Wed, 29 Aug 2018

Irish rider Thomas Maxwell won the Manx Grand Prix Newcomers race yesterday

Today's Manx Grand Prix action has been delayed due to wet roads and mist on the mountain.

Clerk of the Course Gary Thompson announced a one-hour delay to the schedule, meaning roads will now close at 10.30am.

The four-lap Junior Race gets underway at 11.15am following by the first Lightweight and Ultra-Lightweight races at 1.45pm.

Riders will get the chance to do a qualifying lap for the Senior MGP race this afternoon before roads re-open at around 4.50pm.

Should the schedule be delayed further, roads will still re-open between 5pm and 6pm before shutting again this evening.
