Once again this week on Manx shores the weather has wreaked havoc with an anticipated practice schedule, with confirmation this morning from event organisers that Thursday afternoon’s practice session has been called off.
You only have to view the videos posted on Clerk of The Course Gary Thompson’s Twitter stream, to see why the decision has been made to cancel this afternoon’s Classic TT/Manx GP practice action.
Fingers crossed, weather permitting again that tonight’s practice session takes place, the competitors need it, the teams need it, the organisers deserve a break.
The current schedule for this evening’s Manx GP, Classic TT competition is as follows:
6:00 PM Roads around Mountain Course close
6:20 PM Lightweight/Classic TT Practice
Junior/Senior/Newcomers A Manx GP Practice
7:15 PM Junior/Senior Classic TT Practice
Lightweight/Ultra Lightweight Manx GP Practice
8:30 PM Roads re-open around Mountain Course
