Isle of Man TT & other road races

Back
Dunlop koristi svaki inch ceste, svaki zavoj, svaki krug, do kraja. Lijepo ga je za gledati, a i bijaše mi milo za vidjeti kako je za publiku dva puta nakon četvrte pobjede opalio gumu.  :mrgreen:

Čudi me, nitko nije pisao kako Branko Srdanov, nizozemac, po majci "jugoslavenskih" korijena, nije dočekao utrku na stazi već u bolnici, nakon pada na treninzima. Inače, zadnji prosjek je vozio 124mph, što ga je stavilo na mjesto drugog najbržeg newcomera iza BSB pobjednika, australca, Josh Brooksa. Više sreće idući puta, reklo bi se.  :mrgreen:

Hopkins je vozio parade krug, a njegovi komentari bijaše da ne bi mogao skupiti muda u šake da odvozi utrku na Manu. Kako reče iz razloga što su zidovi, ograde, lampe... previše clusterfuck za nekoga poput njega tko čitav život vozi na preglednim, kratkim stazama u kontroliranim uvjetima. Boji se za život čovjek.  8) Josh Brooks se baš i ne bi složio s njim.

Marking the 30th anniversary of Joey Dunlop’s first Isle of Man TT win with Honda, John McGuinness raced Sunday’s Dainese Superbike TT race in the iconic rider’s racing livery. Joey’s colors (circa 2000, his last TT entry) proved to be good luck for Mr. McPint, as the 19-time-TT-winner set an outright race lap record during the Superbike TT. (y) (y)

McGuinness takes PokerStars Senior TT win by 10 seconds


enlargeJohn McGuinness took his 20th Isle of Man TT race victory on Friday when he won the Pokerstars Senior race by ten seconds from team-mate Michael Dunlop, to make it a record 41 podiums in total. Bruce Anstey took third place, and set the fastest lap of the race at 131.531mph, as he got the better of Lightweight TT race winner James Hillier by 0.978s on the final run down the Mountain.

After the initial race was red flagged due to an incident at Bray Hill involving rider Jonathan Howarth in which ten spectators were injured, the race got underway at 4.30pm and the first few laps were nothing short of superb as the gaps between the leading riders were minimal. It was Gary Johnson who grabbed the lead at Glen Helen by 0.5s from William Dunlop with Michael Dunlop just 0.05s further back! Michael Rutter slotted into fourth as McGuinness found himself down in fifth.
 
Honda Domination at 2013 Isle of Man TT



The 2013 Isle of Man TT was a resounding success for Honda, with all contested races - seven of the nine solo and sidecar races - won by Honda-powered machinery.

TT race week began in spectacular style with the first of the Sidecar races. Quadruple World Champion Tim Reeves took his first TT victory alongside passenger Dan Sayle, aboard their Honda-based machine.

Attention then turned to Sunday’s highly anticipated Superbike race, which ended in an all-Honda podium. Honda TT Legends’ Michael Dunlop stormed to victory to bring home his first TT win for Honda, 30 years after his uncle Joey Dunlop achieved the same feat. Team-mate John McGuinness took third place behind Wilson Craig Honda’s Cameron Donald and in doing so set a new outright lap record of 131.67mph.

The following day saw Michael Dunlop securing his second win of the week in the Supersport race, with the MD Racing Honda CBR600RR. He then went on to take his second victory of the day in the Superstock race, setting a stunning new lap record of 131.220mph, only 3.5 seconds off the outright Superbike lap record on a stock CBR1000RR Fireblade – very similar in specification to the production model you can buy from any Honda motorcycle dealership!

In the second Supersport race, Michael Dunlop put in another blistering performance with his MD Racing Honda to secure the win and set another new lap record of 128.667mph. Bruce Anstey and John McGuinness – both riding for HM Plant Honda by Padgett’s Motorcycles – placed second and third respectively to complete another all-Honda podium. The second Sidecar race on the same day saw former World Champions Ben and Tom Birchall leading from start to finish aboard their Honda-powered machinery to take their first TT victory.

All eyes then turned to the final battle of the Isle of Man TT, the one everyone wants to win – the Senior TT. With four wins already in the bag, Michael Dunlop was aiming for five out of five, while John McGuinness was on the hunt for his first TT victory of 2013. It was McGuinness who triumphed after an epic battle with Honda TT Legends team-mate Dunlop and in doing so took his 20th TT win and 41st podium. Kiwi Bruce Anstey completing yet another Honda 1-2-3 on his Padgetts machine.

Honda’s overall tally of TT wins now stands at an impressive 170.

Neil Tuxworth, Manager – Honda Racing; “The Isle of Man TT is and always will be a very special event for Honda. It’s where we began racing back in 1959 and it is always high on our racing agenda. We are extremely pleased to have achieved such strong results in 2013 with our supported teams and to have taken both Superbike races with the Honda TT Legends team. Every race, in which a Honda-powered machine started, was won by a Honda-powered machine and we have very much proved that both the CBR600RR and CBR1000RR Fireblade are still the bikes to beat on the roads.”
