Dropping the first, untimed practice session from next year's TT is the right thing to do, according to eight-time TT winner and Manx Radio TT commentator Charlie Williams.
The announcement was made at the end of last week, with organisers saying riders and teams right through the field had been requesting the change for some time.
Charlie says dropping the session won't have any impact on safety, as far as he's concerned:
