Manx Classic gets underway at Grandstand

The TT Grandstand will be closed for much of this afternoon and evening as an annual motorsport event gets underway.

This year’s Manx Classic features rare vintage cars and exotic sports machines alongside modern prestige sports cars and organisers say the Governor’s Sprint today and the Lhergy Frissell hillclimb in Ramsey on Saturday are ideal for spectators.

The Governor's Sprint will see Glencrutchery Road closed at the TT Grandstand until 3pm and from 6pm until 9.30pm.

Organiser Patrick Carroll says it's a great event for spectators:
