2025 Isle of Man TT: Full practice and race schedule

“I didn’t really enjoy it to be honest, it’s r𓆉eally patchy everywhere,” he told the Belfast Newsletter.

“It’s tricky and I didn’t enjoy i🌌t, but it was good to get some base on the bike and we tried a fꦐew different tyres and eliminated a few things.

“It was quite hard to see as well but we’ve got some laps in and a four o’clock this afternoon I couldn’t believe we were going to 💜go.

“The conditions were better than I thought they were going to be but still a little bit sket🗹chy, but we got some♚ laps under our belt, sleep on it and we’ll go tomorrow.”

McGuinness is a 23-time TT race winn♏er and a legend of t🐼he famous event. He remains competitive, aged 53.

He is a part of a two-rider Honda Racing UK 🍰line-up with Dean Harrison who also found the conditions on Tuesday to be difficult.

Honda boss Ha🍎vier Beltran said: “Dean went out on the 600cc. Two laps down, he came in and said ‘it’s pretty sketchy out there’.

“He had a good chat with John about the areas💎 to roll off, and where it’s a bit risky or apprehensive.

“I am ple🍨ased we managed to run the Superbike after the weather we had. It’s not ideal but at least we got some laps, and we’re able to see what’s going on.”

Beltran insisted that Harrison, prioritising Supersport machinery this year at the TT and in the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:British Superbike Championship, is one to watch.

“Look what Dean was able to do at the North West 200 - five podiums in six races,” he s♛aid.

“He’s on a rol💙l, even in BSB, so we’re keen ꦏto carry on that momentum.

“𝕴From last ye𝓡ar, when Dean ran on the Superbike in BSB, we discussed running the 600cc.

“It’s a good move for him. It enabled him to push hard, wo♎rk hard, at BSB consistently.

“That can roll in🅷to the North We🍰st 200 and everything else.”
