Two extra TT practice sessions proposed - Malcolm - 09-02-2018
MHK says impact on residents will be factored in
Motorcycling chiefs are proposing two new practice sessions if there are delays to the TT schedule.
Following numerous cancellations and disruption at last year's event, the Department for Enterprise is considering the idea and will now consult with stakeholders.
It's suggesting the 27 May and 1 June as extra dates for the TT 2018.
Member with responsibility for Motorsport Rob Callister says the department will factor in the impact on residents, but riders need the practice:
The Department is also inviting the public to submit their views by emailing motorsport@gov.im

RE: Two extra TT practice sessions proposed - Alfie Noakes - 09-02-2018
'errr call me old early morning Thursday afternoon practice fashioned - there just isn't enough practice time as it is and hasn't been for ages since the TT/MGP has far more reasons these days why a practice session is shortened, postponed, stopped or cancelled than there ever used to be - most of those reasons are safety orientated which is fair enough but it's now with a lot more reasons why practice cannot take place then surely the potential time available for practice should increase accordingly ?
