Grand Prix weather delay warning

Riders in the MGP
The roads will stay closed to allow racing to finish

Manx Grand Prix officials are warning motorists they may face lengthy delays due to bad weather.

Forecasts predict rain, which may mean the island's roads which make up part of the course could remain closed to allow the day's racing to be completed.

It is thought they should be opened no later than 1900 BST.

Drivers are advised to take this into account when planning their journey and to listen to the radio and check Roadwatch for delays and closure times.
