Dunlop focuses on Senior

It's the final two races in TT 2013 today (Friday), but only one of them will feature Michael Dunlop.

Tweeting yesterday evening, TT and Motorsport Development Officer Paul Phillips said Dunlop had confirmed he would not take part in the Lightweight.

The Ballymoney rider will instead be focusing on this afternoon's Senior, as he bids for a fifth solo victory at TT 2013 in the blue riband race.

As the good weather continues, there's been a minimum of the kind of injuries - among both fans and competitors - that can prove so damaging for the Island's reputation.

John Moss reports:

The Mountain Road is due to close at 9am, rest of the course at 9.30am.

The Lightweight is scheduled for a 10.15am start, followed by the Senior at 1pm.
