The Place

One spectator seriously injured at Bray Hill. Race red flagged.

Hope they are ok.

The BBC went full disaster mode on this one didn't they?

Jonathan Howarth is on the boat here with us (just loaded up waiting to leave) looks fine.

It will never change,there was a great programme the other night about Joey Dunlop which did give a great insight into the man but we had to go through,"the most dangerous race in the world," "the infamous TT" "230 people have been killed since it started", I guarantee when I go to the pub nobody will ask who won ,just how many got killed.

I have written to Mike Bushell asking why he didn't report the results. I suggest everybody does the same. No point in moaning amongst ourselves.

not good---as for the rags maybe they need reminding that more people have lost their lives climbing everest since 1957 that those in the tt in its entire history

All Bray Hill Senior Race Day casualties transferred from Noble’s
Published: 17 June 2013

All those involved in the Bray Hill TT crash have now either been discharged from hospital or transferred to other off-island trauma units, the Isle of Man Examiner revealed this morning.


Eight people were admitted to hospital, four with serious leg injuries, after a bike ridden by Jonathan Howarth crashed into a crowd of spectators just seven minutes into the Senior TT race.

Among those who sustained serious injuries were New Zealand couple Luke van den Bos, 32, and Tracey Partridge, 27.

The couple had been working in London after leaving New Zealand in April last year to travel.

Miraculously, all the casualties are expected to make a full recovery. Noble’s medics said that if debris from the debut rider’s machine had hit the crowd at upper body height - of if it had hit any children - there would have been multiple fatalities.
