Kirk Braddan Church prepares for contingency days on Sundays

The vicar at a church on the TT course has told Manx Radio "everybody on the Island goes through some sort of compromise when it comes to the races."

Every year Kirk Braddan Church, on Braddan Bridge, opens its doors to around 500 spectators on practice and race days.

Last Sunday people were asked to respect the church service and wait until it had finished to arrive at the viewing point.

Some of the best viewing points around the course are at the Island’s churches which use the motorsport event to drive much needed funds.

Reverend Daniel Richards says they just have to be able to make it work:

This Sunday (7 June) could be used as a contingency session if racing doesn't go ahead as planned on Saturday.
