The Isle of Man TT Marshals Association is continuing to appeal for people to come forward and volunteer for this lunchtime's rescheduled Manx Grand Prix Senior Classic race.

An incident at Alpine Corner on lap two of yesterday morning's Junior claimed the lives of two competitors, Jamie Adam and Chris Bradshaw. The race was red-flagged and the remainder of the day's race programme abandoned.

The Senior Classic will now take place at 2.15 today with what's expected to be a reduced field as some riders haven't been able to change their travel plans.

However racing can only go ahead subject to there being enough marshals.

TTMA chairman Terry Holmes says the office behind the grandstand has already opened so volunteers can sign on.

Roads around the course close at 11.30 this morning and there's full commentary on AM 1368. Racing will be followed by a one lap practice session at 2.15

Meanwhile, racer Tim Venables who came off at Greeba Castle during yesterday's race has been transferred to a hospital in Walton. He remains in a critical condition.
