"I am seeking photos from the 1951 Isle of Man.
Records show that there were 3 Lambrettas entered in the Lightweight(125cc) race which I believe was combined with the Lightweight(250cc) race that year.
Romolo Ferri and M. Masserini were entered by the S.A. Innocenti factory from Italy and F.W. Fry was entered by the British Distributor of Lambretta, Continental Motor Cycles Ltd.
Apparently F.W. Fry did not reach the qualifying time and so did not start the actual race and for some reason Ferri and Masserini were also non-starters.
I am seeking photos of any of these 3 racing Lambrettas."
All three non-started but there is a suggestion that Frank Fry could not lap under the qualifying time - 40 minutes which was extended to 45 minutes. I don't have any pics from our FoTTofinder files - can any of our senior members - Hi Ian - remember a Lambretta being ridden in practice?

These are four that were sent to Germany
