Published: 28 May 2016

The 2016 Isle of Man TT is upon us! The first laps of the iconic mountain course will be completed this evening as the newcomers are led out on their familiarisation lap and it’s expected New Zealand’s Bruce Anstey will lead them out on his MotoGP replica RC213V-S.

The solo newcomers practice is followed by a practice for sidecar newcomers, ahead of a Lightweight and Supersport session.

Practice then resumes on Monday evening with daily sessions throughout the week before Saturday’s opening RST Superbike race.
