ITV4?s television coverage schedule for this year?s Isle of Man TT has been finalised so make sure you have the following times and dates in your diary.
Almost all of the 15 x 1-hour shows over the 14 days plan to air at 21:00 and it all starts with the incredible story of 11-time winner, Ian Hutchinson on Monday 30[SUP]th[/SUP] May which also marks the beginning of practice week.
There may be some occasions where the European Championship football may clash so some programmes will be aired at a slightly later time.
So get your favourite chair plumped, TV planners fired up and attack that Series Link button with the following:

*Schedule could be subject to change.
The presenting and commentary team of Craig Doyle, Steve Parrish, Steve Plater and Jamie Whittam remains unchanged whilst this schedule announcement comes off the back of a recent and brand new deal with London-based Vision Nine being appointed as the event promoter on a 10-year contract.
Economic Development Minister Laurence Skelly MHK said, ?The event is becoming more international with around 26 million watching through the syndicated broadcasts?

Bruce was busted up...tbh if it had won first time out with no development think of the costs to compete. Suddenly the entire field would need to be on RC213's...costs would ruin the competition. Part of me thinks Bruce would have been told to throw the race if he'd been leading.

Dont think either Anstey would have been told or would have thrown it if he was. No ones gonna thrash a bike at the TT and put there life on the line to give up a win.
 
Honda just need to accept the fact that they are a few years behind on their current TT machines, McPint can't wait on the new one arriving, although it's the rider ultimately that makes the difference. I know the Honda techs told Beavis as much when we were chatting to him, Suzuki are in the same boat but even further back.
Twice McGuiness managed to slipstream Hutchy on a Superbike and keep up for a few laps but when the tow was broken by some back marker overtakes he couldn't make the gap up with an underpowered Blade, in the Superstock trim they were like night and day.
The RCV was a great advert for Honda and received loads of attention, the noise made it a conversation piece if nothing else.
Honda have dominated the TT for years and years but know they have to step up a notch if they want to keep up with the BMW advance.

Have to agree with Beavis, nobody would give up a TT title on team orders, it means too much, each and every corner could be your last as well as the straights which cost lives this year sadly.
