Isle of Man TT Mountain Course 37.733 mi (60.725 km)
The 2018 Isle of Man TT was held between 26 May and 8 June, on the Isle of Man TT Mountain Course.
Michael Dunlop scored 3 wins during the event, increasing his TT win tally to 18.[1] Peter Hickman took his first two TT wins, including one at the prestigious Senior TT, taking a new outright lap record of 135.452 mph (217.989 km/h) in the process.[2] The Birchall brothers took the two Sidecar races and a new lap record, becoming the first crew to lap the course in under 19 minutes.[3] Dean Harrison[4] and Michael Rutter took one TT each.
23-times TT winner John McGuinness was a major absentee for the second year in a row, due to serious injuries sustained at the 2017 North West 200.[5] Two times 2017 Isle of Man TT winner Ian Hutchinson was also recovering from serious leg injuries sustained during the 2017 Senior TT,[6] and failed to score a single top 10 in 2018.
The event was marred by the death of two riders, 2017 TT podium finisher Dan Kneen,[7] and TT newcomer Adam Lyon.[8] In the aftermath of Kneen's crash, Steve Mercer suffered serious, career-ending injuries after being hit head-on by a course car travelling in the opposite direction.[9]
