Isle of Man TT 2025: Latest updates and times from the Milwaukee Senior TT
For only the second time in history, the Isle of Man TT will conclude without seeing the highlight of the week, the Senior TT going ahead, after organisers were forced to call it off due to high winds all the way around the 37.73 mile course.
Last occurring in 2012 in similar circumstances, organisers made the call after talking extensively with riders who had completed a course inspection lap one hour before the race was set to get underway - and made their call based on their comments regarding the safety of the course.
One of the fundamental changes we've seen at the TT in recent years has been a move towards a more proactive approach to the inherent risks of the public roads circuit, and the decision to call off this year's event feels very much like the correct call by clerk of course Gary Thompson to conclude what has been up until this point one of the safest TT races on record.
It also comes at the conclusion of a weather-disrupted race week that has nonetheless seen history made as Michael Dunlop extended his record as the TT's all time most successful rider with four more victories to take his record to four.
