Post Event Reaction:
Twenty three times TT winner John McGuinness MBE, back in National Superstock racing mode:
“I enjoyed my racing this weekend. I was pleased to be able to post my PB last time at the GP circuit and while it was only quicker by a whisker, it was still quicker.
I felt some frustration in the second race, I had the pace and confidence at the end of the straights to be handy, but didn’t have the drive onto those straights to be able to make the most of it. I enjoyed seeing the team working together so well, they’re making small steps when they can and it’s encouraging progress.”
