Honda rider explains move to number five
23-time TT winner John McGuinness says it was time for a change of number at TT 2017.
He will start the two big bike races at number five instead of being first away.
With the exception of the Joey Dunlop tribute in 2013, McGuinness has carried the number one plate since 2011.
He says it also may give him other options in the races:-
Hockey: Ladies Masters reach England Hockey Semi-Finals
Over 45s side progress past Sheffield
Commonwealth Games 2026: Design chosen for Isle of Man baton
Lesley Sleight's artwork will represent the Island in Glasgow
Rugby: Bevan Rodd included in England's final 2026 Six Nations squad
Island star could make fifth consecutive appearance
Snooker: Seventh straight win for Legion
Port St Mary side move one point clear in title fight
