Because of the sad loss of Alan Robinson the sad parting on the same day of Frank Rutter seems to have been overlooked.For the record Frank raced in a total of 43 TT/MGP races between 1970 and 2003 so was a very experienced and sesoned competitor.He achieved a podium position in the 1976 production 500cc race with a 3rd position.
Condolences to his family and close friends RIP
