Fastest ever 250cc Mountain Course lap

Bruce Anstey has had a comfortable win in the second race at the Classic TT, the Lightweight.

The Kiwi spent the early part of the race building up a healthy lead, topping 118.7mph on lap two - a new record for a 250cc machine around the Mountain Course.

That put him well on the way to a one-minute advantage over second-placed Ian Lougher, a lead he maintained for the remainder of the race.

Lougher finished second, Phil Harvey third.

Here's the moment Anstey took the chequered flag, as described by Manx Radio TT's Tim Glover:
