Festival organisers cancel sessions
A poor weather forecast has led to tonight's Festival of Motorcycling qualifying sessions being cancelled.
Organisers have consulted with Met Office officials, and determined persistent rain and low lying mist over the Mountain has made the track unusable.
Both Classic and Manx Grand Prix sessions were scheduled to take place from 6.20pm.
Tomorrow's session will go ahead as planned, weather permitting - with roads set to close at 6pm.
