2025 MILWAUKEE SENIOR TT CANCELLED

The Milwaukee Senior TT scheduled to take place on Saturday, 7th June at 19:00 was cancelled due to conditions not being suitable for racing.

With a delayed start caused by showers and wet roads earlier in the day, the final race of the 2025 Isle of Man TT Races - the prestigious Milwaukee Senior TT - was set to get underway at 19:00 on Saturday, 7th June.

Conditions around the course were brightening as solo competitors set off for the Course Inspection Lap at 18:00. However, upon return, a number of competitors indicated concerns regarding course conditions.

Following a consultation with several competitors, Gary Thompson, Clerk of the Course, confirmed that due to high winds - blowing in a different direction than those experienced over the rest of the TT fortnight - conditions were not suitable for racing.

Speaking about the decision, Gary Thompson BEM MBE, Clerk of the Course, added: “It was clear, after speaking with a number of competitors from across the field following the Course Inspection Lap, that conditions were not where they needed to be.

"A couple of competitors said they’d be happy to ride to the conditions, but the overwhelming majority felt that the wind speeds - the way they were gusting, and the fact they were coming from the opposite direction to what they had experienced over the past two weeks - made the conditions too unpredictable and not fit for racing.

"Delaying or cancelling any qualifying session or race is never an easy decision. Of course, in situations like this, the prestige and profile of the Senior TT naturally come to mind, but there are far more important matters at stake. Ultimately, we're here to deliver the event in the safest possible manner - and unfortunately, that simply wasn’t achievable this evening.

"I would like to take the opportunity to thank everyone, particularly the marshals, medics, officials, volunteers, and competitors for their patience and co-operation throughout a challenging event.”
