Adam Easton: Statement issued on behalf of ther Manx Motor Cycle Club - Malcolm - 01-09-2011 The Manx Motor Cycle Club, the organisers of the Manx Grand Prix, regret to announce the death of Adam Easton, 71, from Musselburgh, East Lothian, Scotland following an incident at Lambfell on the approach to Cronk-Y-Voddy during today’s 500cc Classic Grand Prix Race on the Isle of Man, when he was running in 16th place. Adam was an experienced competitor who first raced at the Manx Grand Prix in 1983, when he competed in the Classic Junior Race. He recorded a highest placed finish of 11th in last year’s Classic Senior Race. In total he competed in 34 Manx Grand Prix Races and also finished 22nd in the Historic TT in 1984, the only year he missed the Manx Grand Prix. Bill Bennett, the Chairman of the Manx Motor Cycle Club, commented: “I knew Adam well from when he first competed at the Manx Grand Prix. He was very much part of the Manx Grand Prix family, well liked by everyone in the paddock and one of the real characters involved with the event. He will be greatly missed.” TTwebsite wish to extend their deepest sympathy towards the immediate family and friends of Adam, R.I.P Adam - You will be sadly missed by many. .
