Dunlop Wins the Monster Energy Supersport TT Race 2 making it his 28th TT win. p.s apologies for the wired sun rainbow effect but the sun kind of got in the way of the video (unlike Thursday)
I don’t think Michael has been able to himself in public due to living in the shadow of his own actual Name “Dunlop” but now he has broken the Record for number of wins and is actually the King of the mountain ( in his time). We’ll see he’s actually funny and not as standoffish as he comes across. As a fan he’s always had time for signing autographs and will always chat if not too busy.
Terrific achievement ... But lets not forget that only a few years ago there were not 2 races in every class and 1 and 2 lap races regardless of weather were unheard of. ... Even in the sixties the 50cc class was 3 laps of the mountain course ... the speeds are faster today but the bikes are better to ride ... back in Hailwoods day and even the start of Joey's TT days you only got to ride 3 or 4 races not the 7 and 8 of todays TT ... The classes back then had a bigger CC spread also 50, 125, 250, 350, 500cc and only one race for each ... its a great achievement that Michael has done, but for me Joey and Hailwood will always be the best ... and Mike the Bikes TT comeback win after nearly 10 years away is still the single most amazing performance ever
