Poor weather has forced beleaguered TT organisers to rejig the race schedule for Thursday and Friday’s race days.

There’s a busy schedule on Thursday with five shortened races planned as organisers try to work with a road closure order that only begins at 11.30am because access to the crematorium is required before then.

A Supersport Two race, which has been halved in distance, starts at 12.45pm followed by a two-lap sidecar race at 1.50pm.

A three-lap Superstock TT will conclude the afternoon’s action at 2.55pm.

Roads will re-open between 5 and 6pm before two further races on Thursday evening.

The two-lap Lightweight TT is scheduled to start at 6.30pm, with TT Zero at 7.30pm.

The Senior TT had been moved forward to Friday morning at 10.30am with the weather forecast to close in later that day.
