Racing delay
In considering the scheduling there are two primary objectives – the safety and well-being of the competitors, and the entertainment for fans both on the Island and those following via the live broadcasts.
There are further contributing factors such as the available road closure periods, pre and post-race procedures, the weather forecast, the impact on the local community, and the stress and fatigue placed on teams, officials, marshals, and medical staff.
TT 2024 has been subject to significant disruption due to weather and a series of road-traffic accidents.
The weather forecast remains changeable for the remainder of today but improving for tomorrow (June 8).
Organisers hope to safely deliver some more incredible racing and have a brilliant final 48 hours of TT 2024.
