By Announced this afternoon, a revamped itinerary has now been-imposed for remaining TT 2026 racing activities.
Most notably, the blue-riband Milwaukee Senior races, moves into Friday’s schedule, commencing after second Supersport, opening Sportbike contests.
Saturday will feature (weather, unforeseen circumstances pending) concluding Sportbike, Superstock races.
Tomorrow could see the opening SSTK 1000 encounter take place but again this depends on certain factors in-particular the weather’s mindset.
Should Royal London 360 Superstock Race 1 action not commence, then the race would-be-cancelled. Organisers have stated the encounter cannot-be-included into following days schedules.
If race cancellation unfolds, then the competition prize-fund, would-be equally distributed across racers set to participate.

TT Races, Clerk of The Course, Gary Thompson MBE BEM:
“Following the disruption we have experienced throughout the event, we have continued to review every available option to maximise the opportunities for racing, while ensuring the delivery of the race programme to the safest possible conditions remains our primary consideration.
The revised programme has been developed to give us the strongest possible opportunity to complete the remaining races, while also protecting the delivery of the Senior TT as the headline race of the event.
Although the latest forecast suggests the likelihood of racing on Thursday is currently low, we will continue to monitor conditions closely and make a final decision on Thursday morning following further consultation with the Met Office.
We recognise the disappointment that disruption causes for competitors, teams, marshals, residents and fans, and I would like to thank everyone for their patience, understanding and continued support throughout the event.”
