2024 Manx Grand Prix: Monday racing schedule in major reshuffle due to delays
Poor weather forces race schedule overhaul

The final day of racing at the 2024 Manx Grand Prix has seen a major schedule overhaul due🔴 to severe weather delays.
Theꦛ 2024 event has been hampered severely by the weather, with practice cancelled f🙈rom Monday through Wednesday, while Thursday and Friday evening’s qualifying were also scrapped.
The Sunday contingency sessions for racing were also abandoned due to rain, while red ൲flags on Saturday brought racing to a premature end.
Asꦺ a result, no full race💧s have been completed, with Monday originally set to feature all six contests.
Roads were due to close at 9:30am local time on Monday morning, with the one-lap Clas꧑sic Junior Manx▨ GP getting under way at 10:10.
However, wet roads and low clouds over the mountain brought about an initial one-hour delay, before the Clerk of the Course announcing a provisional road closure of 12:30 to allow a band of wet weather to pass over the islan♍d.
Racing was due to get going at 1:10pm with the Classic Junior, followed by th෴e Senior Manx GP a💖t 2:15pm.
However, further ཧdelays have pushed the road closure back to 2pm.
Due to a lack of flexibility in the timetable now, the Classic Senior and Clas𓆏sic Junior classes have been combined for a one-lap race due at 2:40pm.
The Senior Manx GP will go at 3:45pm, with the Lightweight race scheduled for 5:1🐼0pm.
The Classic Superbike r♑ace is due to close out the event at 6:40pm. All three race💖s have been shortened to two laps.
The red-flagged Junior Manx GP has been scrapped from Monday’s schedule, with a result decla🧸red. Andrea Majola is the winner.
Two riders crashed during Saturday’s aꩵbandoned Junior Manx GP.
