Practice session suspended following 'serious incident' in Ramsey

Session was red flagged in Parliament Square

All racing activity on the Snaefell Mountain Course has been suspended until further notice, on the first day of TT 2026.

It follows a red flag incident which occurred at Parliament Square in Ramsey at 1:50pm today (25 May) during the practice session.

Serious incident procedures have been implemented.

All roads around the course will remain closed; the public are being reminded to never enter closed roads either on foot or by vehicle.

Isle of Man TT Races say the 'current priority for the clerk of the course and the wider race control team is working closely with the emergency services to support the ongoing response wherever possible'.

The Isle of Man Constabulary has confirmed it is 'still responding and dealing with the incident'.

A spokesperson for the Isle of Man TT Races said: "For the safety of everyone, all roads around the TT Mountain Course remain closed until further information is provided.

"We must stress that you must not enter these closed roads - whether on foot or by vehicle - as emergency and support vehicles may be operating on the course, and there is a significant risk to your safety.

"We would also like to remind the public that while the roads remain closed, you should follow the instructions of marshals, race officials, and emergency service personnel at all times.

"Further updates will be provided in due course via the Isle of Man TT Races Official WhatsApp Infoline.

"We appreciate your understanding and cooperation at this time."
