Racing off after Mountain incident

Mountain Road to stay closed

Races have been cancelled for the remainder of the day, after an incident at the 33rd milestone on the TT course.

It happened during the Senior and Supersport qualifying session, held after today's Superstock and Lightweight TT races.

The whole course was red-flagged as a result.

The TT Zero race will be re scheduled.

Police say lower parts of the course have now re-opened, with the exception of the Mountain Road.

That will remain closed between Ramsey and the Creg-ny-Baa, until further notice.
