TT Report
Despite low-lying mist around areas of the Isle of Man, it is still hoped the first day of racing at the 2010 TT will get under way on time.
The six-lap PokerStars Superbike race is due to start at midday, with the first Sure Sidecar TT, to be run over three laps, due away at 3pm.
The Island was covered by mist this morning, but forecasters believe the cloud will lift to allow racing to be run – although a small delay cannot yet be ruled out.
The Mountain Road between Ramsey Hairpin and the Creg-ny-Baa is scheduled to close at 10.30am and the rest of the circuit at 11am.
TT Update #1
Mist rolling in from the sea has caused a delay to the start of the PokerStars Superbike TT, the first race of the 2010 Isle of Man TT.
As racers and fans await the start of the six-lap race, officials are keeping a close eye on the weather and have so far announced a delay until at least 3pm.
The first Sure Sidecar TT, to be run over three laps, is scheduled away at 3pm, but the delay is likely to impact on that contest too.
The Mountain Road between Ramsey Hairpin and the Creg-ny-Baa is closed at 10.30am and the rest of the circuit at 11am.
TT Update #2
After a three and a half hour delay racing at the 2010 Isle of Man TT got under way at 3.30pm with the PokerStars Superbike race.
John McGuinness retired with reported mechanical problems on lap one and Conor Cummins has taken the lead with a staggering 131.511mph first lap from a standing start. He holds the leap by more than 20 seconds at the end of lap three of six.
The first Sure Sidecar Race is now due to get under way at 6pm, with all three laps being run.
