Honda's Harrison claims first TT win in six years
Dean Harrison won his first Isle of Man TT race since 2019 with victory in the Superstock TT on Tuesday. Honda rider Harrison overhauled Superbike TT winner Davey Todd in the two-lap sprint around the 37.7 mile course to win by 11.656 seconds. Advertisement The race had been due take place on Tuesday afternoon but wet weather postponed the race until the evening and also saw it reduced to two laps. Michael Dunlop, who won the Supersport race on Monday, finished in third. "I got the hammer down from the start," Harrison told TT Plus. "I really dug deep and the bike was really good. I've been third and second, so to get another TT win is magic. "I can't thank the team enough. It's been a long time coming, I've over the moon." With a two-lap race and no pit stops, emphasis was placed on a fast start and it was Todd who set the early pace. Advertisement The BMW rider led by 0.2 seconds by Glen Helen over Harrison, with James Hillier just ahead of Nathan Harrison and Dunlop in third. Todd's lead was up to a second at Ballaugh, and he doubled his advantage by the time he reached the Bungalow. However, it was over the Mountain that Harrison started to chip away at Todd's advantage. The Yorkshire rider pulled back a second-and-a-half to end the lap just 0.4 seconds behind heading onto the second and final lap. Harrison found 2.3 seconds on Todd in the first sector to Glen Helen, and from there he didn't look back as he moved 3.2 seconds clear by Ballaugh Bridge. Advertisement As Todd battled traffic, Harrison, with clean road in front of him, was able to extend his lead to five seconds by Ramsey Hairpin, and the final margin was 11 seconds. His final lap of 135.692mph was more than enough to claim his fourth victory at the Isle of Man TT and the popularity of his victory was evident by the cheers in the winners' enclosure as he crossed the line. It was a first win for Honda in the Superstock race since Dunlop triumphed in 2013. Dunlop held on to third after battling an electronic issue on his BMW.
