TT site opening delayed until Sunday

It follows severe weather earlier this week

The opening of the Isle of Man TT Races site at the grandstand in Douglas has been delayed until 9am on Sunday (26 May).

Organisers say this is due to the impact of severe weather earlier this week - it had been due to open on Saturday (25 May).

Officials add whilst this news will come as a disappointment to fans and traders 'the safety of everyone must remain paramount.'

The site could remain closed on Sunday morning - a decision on that will be made by 12pm tomorrow.
