What is alleged to be wanted by the big manufacturers for 2005 and beyond is even worse in this respect. It is rumoured that one of the suggestions likely to be put forward is for just 3 days of practice and 4 races. The races would be Superbike, Supersport, Superstock and Sidecar. I can't seriously believe that this will actually happen, there has to be a compromise somewhere along the line. But it does seem that, despite the 4-lap controversy over the Formula 1 and Senior races, 2004 could be the last 'traditional' TT as we know it.
