The Morecambe man went seventh-fastest in the Superbike class

23-time TT winner John McGuinness says he was feeling more positive during Wednesday night's opening qualifying of TT 2025.

The Morecambe man managed a best pace of 128.031mph to go seventh-fastest in the Superbike class.

Twenty-four hours beforehand he admitted he hadn't enjoyed free practice, describing the conditions around the Snaefell Mountain Course as 'sketchy'.

But he seemed more upbeat when he spoke to Radio TT the night before last:
