Last night’s practice at the Festival of Motorcycling had to be abandoned after a series of incidents on the Mountain Course.
There were incidents at Ramsey Hairpin, Bungalow, Kerroo Mooar and Ballahutchin – the last one of which meant the session had to be called off just before 8pm.
Scott Campbell, Ross Richards and Stuart Hall were involved in the incident at Ballahutchin on the approach to Ballagarey with Richards and Hall taken by airmed to Nobles Hospital. Scott Campbell was reported as OK.
John Leigh Pemberton came off his machine at Ramsey Hairpin and was taken by airmed to Nobles hospital while Gavin Lupton, who was off at the Bungalow and Neil Gregory, who had an incident at Kerrowmoar, were both reported as OK following their accidents.
Tonight’s practices, meanwhile, are scheduled to get underway at 6.20pm with roads opening no later than 9pm.
