Testing of digital motorsport flags to take place

System needs restarting ahead of MGP

Testing will take place today (16 August) on the digital flag system around the TT Mountain Course.

Motorists have been advised they may be displaying as red or black from 7am.

No action is required to be taken.

Clerk of the Course Gary Thompson said: "The digital flag system has been successfully used on the TT Course since 2022 and ahead of this year’s Manx Grand Prix commencing on Sunday (18 August) we need to retest the system as a precaution.

"As always I am acutely aware of any disruption that may be faced by the public and again thank everyone for their understanding whilst we continue preparations for the MGP."
