[sam_ad id=”2″ codes=”true”]Michael Rutter led the race at Glen Hellen, a second before Hutchinson and Hickman – who was only just behind with a further 3/10 seconds. James Hillier has already finished the race at Ballacraine.

At Ballaugh, Hutchinson was already in first place. His distance to Rutter was 1.3 seconds at Ramsey Hairpin. Hickman went on three and 1.5 seconds behind Dan Kneen. On five, Dean was Harrison and on six Michael Dunlop.

The first lap drove Hutchi with 131.109 mph from standing start. The distance to Hickman was 4.5 seconds. But second place did not have more Rutter. Hickman could catch Rutter. The distance was only 0.17 seconds. This was followed by Kneen, Harrison and Dunlop.

The first four all made a round of 130 mph. Kneen took a personal best time. Bruce Anstey, Conor Cummins and Gary Johnson drove into the pits and finished the race.

The second round

At Glen Helen the gap between the first two had melted. But only to 4.1 seconds. Hickman was a bit faster then Hutchi and even faster than Rutter. The distance increased to two seconds. Kneen had the third podium spot in front of him. He lay behind Rutter for 1.5 seconds.

Up to Ramsey, Hutchi increased his lead to 7.8 seconds. Kneen went to third place and could take a lead of 3.3 seconds on Rutter.

The second round drove Hutchi with an average 130.673 mph before it went into the box to change the rear tire. The fork was also slightly adjusted, apparently he was not quite satisfied with the setting. Hickman continued with a distance of 5.8 seconds, followed by Rutter, Kneen, Harrison and Dunlop. The fastest privateer was Coward and was nine, followed by Horst Saiger at ten.

The third round

Until Glen Helen built Hutchinson his lead to 13.6 seconds. Hickman was 10 seconds before Kneen. Rutter on four got pressure from Dunlop. Which was just 0.2 seconds behind. He could go to Ballaugh Bridge.

The fourth round

Hutchi still had 12.4 seconds to Hickman. Kneen held a comfortable lead and seemed safe on three. Rutter took fourth place and made a distance of 3.5 seconds.

Hutchi easily took the win and the fastest lap of the race. 131,639 mph he managed in the final round. Hickman was 22.4 seconds later in second and on three the BMW driver Kneen.

Rutter came in fourth with just 1.1 seconds ahead of Harrison, who dropped Dunlop to sixth place.

Best privateer was Coward with the ninth place. Horst Saiger was tenth.
