Clerk of course managing busier ten-race programme this year
There is room to adapt the busy TT practice and race schedule this year in the event of any disruption.
That's the belief of the clerk of the course as 2023 will see a busier ten-race programme take place.
Among the changes for this year the senior race will now take place on the final Saturday, 10 June; the Superbike race will be held on what was traditionally 'Mad Sunday' on 4 June, and there are now two superstock and supertwin races.
Gary Thompson says organisers are prepared to deal with the scrutiny of having to alter the schedule if they need to:
