William Dunlop withdraws from TT

Difficult decision following North West spill

William Dunlop has pulled out of the TT.

He is still suffering from the spill at the North West. A statement says "he is still too beaten up by that incident".

He has described it as "a very difficult decision and not one I have taken lightly".

He apologizes to his sponsors but believes that continuing would be the wrong decision and would not give a true account of either himself or the team.

Last night in practice, it was apparent that his week was not going well.
