And who’s stopping this Michael Dunlop? The grandson of the art also won the second Supertwin race, making the most of the formidable potential of the Paton SC1. This small two-cylinder rocket bears the name of the glorious brand that was the protagonist of the MotoGP championship of the 50s and 60s but was relaunched in the last decade with the expertise and investments of SC. In the race shortened to two laps, instead of the three expected, due to the compression of the race program affected by the weather, Dunlop’s success was never in question. In the final lap, while Dunlop was heading towards triumph, the race was stopped with a red flag. At the moment there is no official news regarding the incident. The finishing order is that at the end of the first lap. Dunlop’s success confirmed ahead of Peter Hickman (Yamaha R7) and third place for the Aprilia RS660 ridden by the surprising Mike Brown.
Dunlop increases the loot
With this victory Michael Dunlop reaches 29 TT successes, three more than his uncle Joey. This week he has already won four races, the double challenges of Supersport (Yamaha) and Supertwin with Paton. The Senior TT is scheduled for late in the evening, which is expected to take place over four laps instead of the usual six. But in the meantime we await official news on the reason for the suspension of this race.
