NW200: Thursday Practice & Race Schedule

The 2017 Vauxhall International North West 200 continues under the North Coast sunshine this morning with the final practice and qualifying sessions before racing gets underway later today.

So far, Alastair Seeley has led the way in the Superbike class but with the sessions reduced on Tuesday things could well change today with the weather still playing ball.

Seeley was also on top on the 600cc Supersport machines but it was veteran Michael Rutter leading the way in Superstock, Martin Jessopp was on top in the Supertwin class.

Roads close for action at 09.15 today with practice sessions scheduled to get underway at approximately 9.45 until the roads re-open at 3pm for a brief period and then close again at 17.00 for racing.
