Raul Torras Martinez dies at Isle of Man TT hours after becoming fastest Spaniard ever

Simon Chapman headshot wwos

This year's Isle of Man TT has suffered its first fatality with the death of Raul Torras Martinez, the fastest Spaniard ever to lap the infamous Snaefell Mountain Course.

Martinez was competing in the first Supertwin race of this year's Isle of Man when he crashed on the last lap.

The 46-year-old made his debut at the Isle of Man in 2017 and contested 21 races.

Although he never won a race there, he earned 18 bronze replicas – awarded to all finishers who complete the race within 110 per cent of the winner's time.

Just hours before he died, Martinez recorded his quickest lap ever on the course, averaging 201.924km/h (125.470mph), in the Superstock race.

Martinez recently starred in the Isle of Man documentary No Room for Error .

"With great sadness, the Isle of Man TT Races can confirm that Raul Torras Martinez, 46, from Sant Hilari Sacalm, Spain, was killed in an accident during the first Supertwin race of the 2023 Isle of Man TT Races," a statement from race organisers read.

"The accident occurred at Alpine, between the 16th and 17th mile markers, on the third and final lap of the race.

"Raul was an experienced TT competitor who made his debut in 2017, with a best result of 15th in last year's Supertwin Race. 

"He recorded his fastest ever lap of the TT Mountain Course earlier today in the Superstock race, with a lap at an average speed of 125.470mph whilst securing a 20th-place finish. 

"The Isle of Man TT Races pass on their deepest sympathy to Raul's family, friends, and loved ones."

The Isle of Man is perhaps known as much for the sheer volume of deaths as the race itself.

The latest fatality is the 267th death on the 60km street circuit and continues a record dating back to 2002 of a rider death every year racing has been held on the island.

The Isle of Man hosted its first Tourist Trophy race in 1907 and suffered its first death in 1911.

In 2005, the island suffered its deadliest year when 11 people were killed. Three riders and one marshall died in the TT then six riders and one spectator were killed in the Manx Grand Prix.

The Isle of Man TT concludes on June 10.

Isle of Man TT: The sights, sounds and stars of the most dangerous race in the world

Six lives were claimed in last year’s event. 265 motorbike riders have died on the mountain course. so, what triggers riders to risk it all year-on-year kieran jackson travels to the isle of man to meet the daredevils seeking the thrill – and peril – of a lifetime, article bookmarked.

J ohn McGuinness is all too aware that this time, any time, could be the last time. With 23 Isle of Man TT wins to his name – a record for any living rider – and more than 100 races heading into his 20 th year in 2023, the 51-year-old does not need telling twice. He might not be coming back.

One form of preparation always needs fulfilling.

“When I’m getting ready for the TT, I wash the cars, mow the lawn, put the finances straight,” he says. “Stuff like that. Because you never know.”

It’s more than caution, it’s reality. Why? Because for two weeks every year, this island in the middle of the Irish Sea plays host to – with little argument – the world’s most dangerous race. The 37-mile Mountain Course, with 219 turns where speeds can hit a lap-average of 135 mph and a maximum pace of 206mph, has claimed 265 lives in both the TT and August’s Manx Grand Prix, effectively the amateur competition.

But there is nothing amateurish about it. For its treachery and deadliness comes a thrill and exhilaration which, as The Independent learns in speaking to those who risk their lives for such sensations, is not matched anywhere. Not just in motor racing. Literally anywhere.

Yet is that enough? After six riders died in the 2022 edition, have some thought twice about a return this year? And as they propel themselves down Bray Hill up to the formidable Ago’s Leap – flying through time in the most spine-chilling seconds in motorsport – do they actually think about the unthinkable?

They say the moments before take-off are the worst. Anticipation has been bubbling, nerves jangling, ever since last year’s TT concluded. For most of the daredevils who ride a motorbike in this event, 12 months’ worth of work, of preparation, of jostling with the mind, comes down to an official’s tap on the shoulder – the TT’s rather old-school method of lights out.

For Ryan Cringle, this will all be new. Cringle is a local; a Manxman who has dominated the island’s racing scene. His younger brother, Jamie, made his debut last year. Now 29, Ryan is no stranger to being in-and-around the paddock but had delayed entering the TT until he felt comfortable. Well, as comfortable as can be.

“My emotions have not been bad until this weekend,” he says, the night before his first laps on the bike as a newcomer. “I struggled to sleep last night because, s***, it’s getting real now.”

ISLE OF MAN TT - Q&A

What is the Isle of Man TT?

A series of motorbike races held every May-June for two weeks in the Isle of Man. 2023 will be the 102nd edition.

How many races are there?

A record 10 in 2023.

What does TT stand for?

Tourist Trophy. It first ran in 1907 and attracted riders from England and Europe, intended for motorcycles ‘similar to those sold to the public’ called touring machines.

Is the TT part of any world championship?

Not anymore. In 1977, the TT lost its world championship status (now known as MotoGP) due to safety concerns.

Beyond the experienced racers who, of their own accord, return every year there is a fervour that the ultimate decision comes at the beginning. Aware of the very real consequences – with little in the way of course protection should you crash – will you give it a go?

Seek the ultimate thrill, parallel to the peril of a lifetime.

“I’m not shy speaking about what could happen,” Cringle adds. “That’s the reality and everyone knows that. There’s no point getting beat up about it. I see certain sections of the track and start getting anxiety, a sick sinking feeling in my stomach.

“When your time is up, it’s up. If it’s going to happen, it’s going to happen.”

Come Monday morning, with the start delayed by 25 minutes, Cringle’s time has arrived. Starting in view of the main grandstand on Glencrutchery Road, he is away. The acceleration, even from a standing-start, is mind-boggling. And on the approach to Bray Hill, the pace only picks up.

Ryan Cringle is competing in the Isle of Man TT for the first time in 2023

On the other side of the road from the stands is Douglas Borough Cemetery; the underlying threat in very firm view. Cringle’s TT career has begun: an ambition realised.

But some don’t make it back. The first week of practice and qualifying is designed to give the riders ample time to learn the intricacies of the course, with a typical lap taking around 17 minutes. Confidence is slowly built-up, lap times are slowly whistled down.

By the second week, race-week, the field are ready to put it all on the line. 2023 will be the biggest event in the competition’s history with 10 races in total, while the finale of the Senior TT is now a day later, on Saturday.

Two of those 10 races are sidecar races; piloted by a driver and a passenger, these three-wheeled machines can hit speeds of 160mph, with the TT track negotiated with roughly 60% of the throttle wide open.

When your time is up, it’s up. If it’s going to happen, it’s going to happen.

Driver and passenger must work in perfect harmony, with the driver kneeling behind the wheel while the passenger transfers their weight left-to-right or forward-to-back, depending on the corner.

Which is why, often, teams are families.

Last year, tragedy struck. The father-and-son duo of Roger and Bradley Stockton died after a crash at Ago’s Leap on the final lap of the final sidecar race. Roger, 56, was competing in his 11 th TT; Bradley, 21, his first.

Roger Stockton, 56, and his son Bradley, 21, both died after an accident at the 2022 Isle of Man TT

Heartbreaking, of that there is no doubt. But Bradley had fulfilled a dream by competing in the TT alongside his father. Having grown up in the paddock, he decided at 16 he wanted to replicate his dad, insisting he simply “couldn’t wait to race in the TT.”

It is a feeling all too familiar to the Birchall brothers. Hailing from Mansfield, the brothers nine years apart in age are 12-time TT winners – and won both sidecar races last year.

“You’re so desperate to come back,” Ben, the driver, says in the refreshingly informal environment that is the TT paddock. “It’s like touching a f***ing red hot poker. You’re not supposed to but you keep thinking… should I? And you do.”

Tom, the passenger, is in agreement: “You do not experience this buzz anywhere else. Ever. You’ve done so much work, it’s now or never. Put it all behind you and go for f***ing hell. He’s fully committed so I need to be on his level of commitment. You know what’s at stake – that big silver trophy and the feeling in the winners’ enclosure.

“It’s a drug. It’s your dopamine level saying get me back there, I want to do that.”

Thundering down Bray Hill past the petrol station on the right, with hordes of spectators lining the playing fields of St Ninian’s High School on the left, there cannot be any second thoughts.

“No build-up,” says Ben of the race start and negotiating Bray Hill. “Zero to 160, get on with it. If you want to do it any good, you have to do it flat out. There’s no choice.

“Because you set off from a standing start and you’ve got time, you make a better job of your [gear] shift. Perfect, perfect, perfect.”

Tom has to match it, too. “You set off down Bray Hill, there’s no point going ‘hang on Ben, I’m not ready.’ Be ready. Be there. You’re not going to better that. You build up this protective barrier.”

The brotherly bond is pronounced. “He’s my mate. Imagine you’ve just won a TT. And I get to do it with my brother who I love,” concludes Ben. No wonder they’re the favourites again this year.

Yet if to illustrate the risks that come with the rewards, later on opening day, The Independent is pencilled in to speak to the Crowe brothers, who also ride a sidecar. But passenger Callum is being treated for a leg injury in hospital after clipping the inside of Laurel Bank in qualifying.

“Bit sore, but nothing major,” is the response from their camp.

In the Isle of Man, no interview is guaranteed.

A crash in practice week, you would think, puts you off. That dose of reality amid the adrenaline-fuelled ride. But not for Sam West. In 2022, he was involved in a high-speed crash at Laurel Bank. Suffering a hole in his hand and severe knee injuries, his bike quickly burst into a fireball. But a few days later, miraculously, he was back on the bike in time for race week.

“I was so frustrated with my body taking its time to heal,” he says, present in the paddock a year on. “By the end of race week, I definitely wasn’t fit. I was fatigued, it was dangerous.

“But the TT has become my life’s work. Everything revolves around it, even my motorbike shop in Stoke. I can only do the life I have because of the TT. Without it, I’d feel like I wouldn’t have a life. My girlfriend who I met racing in Macau, says ‘stop doing it’ but I don’t think she quite understands how important it is to me.”

The buzz is something everyone at the TT talks about it. Understandably so. But something quite often overlooked is the skill of each rider to compete on the mountain course. Crazy lunatics? Solely adrenaline junkies? Insults, the pair of them.

“A lot of people think we have to take out our brains to go fast here, it’s the complete opposite,” tells Peter Hickman , the all-time lap record-holder at an average speed of 135.452mph in 2018.

“It’s about using your brain and calculating the risk at the right time. We’re not just idiots, we’re not just crazy. The people who win here and are here for a long time are clever people.”

Peter Hickman is the lap record-holder at the Isle of Man TT

If the skillset of the drivers is an aspect of the event often ignored, calls for it to be banned are not. Nowadays, those calls usually rear their head on social media. But every driver spoken to repeats the same fundamental principle: free choice.

“It’s a risk we’ve all already accepted,” Hickman insists after the first day of practice, where he hit a top speed of 200mph. “If I make a mistake, I know what the consequences are. If I’m OK with that, I’m here. If I’m not, then I wouldn’t be here.”

And some do think twice. Glenn Irwin was 2022’s best newcomer but is missing out this year, stating: “As a father, it is the right choice.”

But for most, the temptation is too strong. “You can talk about this place until you’re blue in the face… until you stand at the roadside and see a bike go past you at 190mph, you won’t get it,” says Hickman, who like many others ‘warms up’ for the TT by playing the official video game on his PlayStation.

If I make a mistake, I know what the consequences are.

“It’s not just visual, it’s a feeling. When people come here for the first time, even people into bikes and racing, they see the first bike go through and they literally can’t talk.”

As the bike accelerates down Bray Hill up to Quarterbridge Road and over Ago’s Leap in a manner ethereal as well as ferocious, leaves are shifted from their spot on the pavement. A marshal in a high-vis top standing on the footpath, unfathomably close, raises his eyebrows. You hear the bike’s engine before you see it, but only marginally. Gone before you can blink, fans touch their left ear. A deafening sound.

For a spectator, a spectacle like no other. For a regular rider, the norm; apexes must be hit. For a newcomer?

“I had a lot of doubt just before I started,” says Cringle, the morning after the day before. “Bray Hill is mental – as you go over the right (turn) before you flick a left (turn) and go down the hill, there’s a bump. The wheel comes up and you start setting the bike down, then there’s a big bump again and before you get to the bottom, the bike compresses and you’re doing a wheelie.

“I don’t know how to put the whole lap into words. It’s scary, the bike was shaking, but it’s just grit your teeth and get through it.

“I did it and was like holy s***. It was nuts. But so, so good.”

The danger is palpable but improvements in safety are always strived for. Virtual red flags are now in operation to quicken communication between the 400 marshals positioned around the course. Each bike is now fitted with compulsory GPS technology. Riders must also wear chest armour beneath their racing suits; a move enforced last year which West credits with saving his life.

“I hit the wall and while the armour was pulled apart, I didn’t have a single bruise on my chest,” he reveals. “It saved my life – 15 years ago, I’d have died from internal organ failure. It’s the ignorance of the human though. We think it won’t happen to us, we turn a blind eye as much as we can.”

And there, in essence, is the TT. The ultimate risk, with the prize of ultimate liberation. As qualifying fizzles out with race week on the horizon, the riders are in their own zone. Not racing others, so much as themselves. Enraptured in their own bubble, under the helmet, with just the bike and the road in their minds. Little wonder they keep coming back.

“It’s a compliment to the TT to say I’d stick my neck on the line,” West sums up, leaving a question lingering in the air. “The course is hair-raising. This is my life. I give everything to the sport.

“Life is there to be lived. Would you give up your life to avoid dying?”

Records Shattered at ‘Absolutely Insane’ 2023 Isle of Man Tourist Trophy

Watch out for oblivious wildlife and pack an extra helmet if you are ready for this undulating 37-mile motorcycle race.

2023 isle of man tourist trophy race

Jutting rockily from the Irish Sea lies a culturally unique island which has intertwined itself with motor racing for 117 years.

2023 isle of man tourist trophy race

Visiting NASCAR Cup Series Champion Kurt Busch described his experience on Twitter: “ Isle of Man! This is absolutely insane .” Spectators can view the race from most corners or bends, a friend’s balcony, verdant hillsides, or a town square. Paddocks are unrestricted.

The Snaefell Mountain Course elevates danger in a smirking reminder of mortality. Pheasants and wild hares lunge into front wheels spinning at over 150 mph, and local birds crash into riders’ visors. Yet for the price of a pint, you may, at arm’s length, watch motorcycles and sidecars ripping by, and those living trackside serve tea à la mode—racing fuel.

This year’s race, held this past weekend after more than a week of practice and qualifying runs, saw riders in four motorcycle classes (and one for sidecars) from England, Isle of Man, and Ireland, as well as Australia, Italy, Czech Republic, Spain, France, Japan, South Africa, Serbia, and Slovakia.

Perhaps hardest to understand from an American perspective is that riders may mount a Honda in one race and a BMW in another—and with factory backing in each. Imagine a Chevrolet, Ford, or Toyota NASCAR driver competing in another brand. Riders are tapped off individually at 10-second intervals to virtually eliminate starting line incidents, though favored heroes and rivalries dominate paddock chatter.

Atypically for Great Britain and the Isle of Man, sunshine prevailed this year and with a warm track, expectations mounted for record speeds. Peter Hickman appeared the man to beat in Superbike, Superstock, Supertwins, and the all-important Senior TT on Saturday as his lap record of 16:42.778, 135.452 mph was set during the 2018 Senior TT.

Indeed, Hickman on Friday smashed the outright TT lap record with a speed of 136.358 mph in the second Superstock race, his 11th TT win ( BMW M1000RR) and later that afternoon narrowly defeated Michael Dunlop to capture his 12th win (Supertwin Race 2) on his Yamaha R7. This built anticipation for Saturday’s Milwaukee Senior TT, the ultimate prize at the Isle of Man.

The Milwaukee Senior TT Race, which began this year with a sidecar parade lap commemorating 100 years, was a six-lap, 226.38-mile event that challenged Superbike riders from BMW, Honda, Kawasaki, and Yamaha, now with two races and multiple laps beneath their wheels.

2023 isle of man tourist trophy race

Hickman and Dunlop, who captured all seven prior races, were favored. Ultimately Hickman, riding the Monster Energy FHO Racing BMW 1000RR, took the checkered flag, finishing 19.9 seconds ahead of Dean Harrison’s DAO Racing Kawasaki ZX-10RR with Dunlop trailing by 20.4.

Hickman demolished the Senior TT record at 135.507 mph on lap two. This puts Hickman, with 13, one win behind legendary Mike Hailwood. Connor Cummins in 4 th was the highest place native rider.

Sidecars, completely dominated by brothers Tom and Ben Birchall, obliterated sidecar lap and race records with the first-ever 120-mph lap, then in the second sidecar race established a 120.65-mph benchmark, again winning. Note that top trap speed for these custom-built machines is barely 130 mph.

These purpose-built sidecars are more open-wheel race car than motorcycle, with the driver positioned over the engine and a passenger providing moveable ballast. TT sidecars are powered by 600cc 4-cylinder, 675cc 3-cylinder, and 900cc parallel-twin engines.

2023 isle of man tourist trophy race

Honda’s dominance in Superbike, many based on MotoGP RC213V-S’, delivered 11 of the top 20 riders including John McGuinness and Dunlop, while Hickman and Harrison remained committed to BMW and Kawasaki respectively. Superbike differs, where Yamaha is the choice for Dunlop and Harrison with Hickman switching to Triumph. Favored Supertwin machines include Paton, Yamaha, Aprila, and Kawasaki.

Although there’s a long history of motorcycle racing on the Isle of Man, it wasn’t until 1959 that an unknown Honda came, understanding the TT was the most important motorcycle race in the world. Honda won the team prize that year and by 1967 prevailed in every class.

Tragedia all’Isola di Man Tourist Trophy: altro morto, un pilota spagnolo

Tragedia all’Isola di Man Tourist Trophy: altro morto, un pilota spagnolo

ROMA - Tragedia all'Isola di Man durante il Tourist Trophy 2023 . Il pilota spagnolo Raul Torras Martinez è morto in un incidente di gara martedì sera. Stando a quanto riportato dagli organizzatori il 46enne ha perso la vita durante la prima gara Supertwin e nel terzo e ultimo giro tra il 16° e il 17° miglio. Torras Martinez era un concorrente esperto del TT, che ha fatto il suo debutto sull'isola nel 2017 e ha partecipato a un totale di 21 gare. "Raul è stato lo spagnolo più veloce di sempre ad aver doppiato il percorso del TT" , hanno detto gli organizzatori.

Tourist Trophy, Torras non è la sola vittima

Nelle edizioni precedenti delle gare del Tourist Trophy, che si svolgono dal 1907, hanno purtroppo perso la vita molti altri piloti, non a caso questo evento è considerato uno dei più pericolosi la mondo. Soltanto l'anno scorso sono sei motociclisti e Torras Martinez è stata la 267a vittima nella storia della manifestazione. Tra le vittime dell'anno scorso c'erano un padre e un figlio. Il pilota Roger Stockton, 56 anni, e il passeggero 21enne Bradley , che provenivano da Crewe, sono morti in seguito a un incidente ad Ago's Leap nell'ultimo giro della seconda gara di sidecar.

2024 ISLE OF MAN TT RACES

27th May – 8th June

‘TOURIST TROPHY’: OUT NOW

‘Tourist Trophy’, the feature-length documentary film covering the 2022 Isle of Man TT Races, is out now and available to stream for FREE on TT+

Directed by accomplished documentary maker, Adam Kaleta, the film is an authentic, true-to-life portrayal of the 2022 TT Races, following several of the event’s leading competitors as they navigate the highs and lows of racing on the Mountain Course.

The film follows several of the leading protagonists who competed at the 2022 event and allows us to better rationalise the TT mind-set through the authentic portrayal of each rider’s TT story.

There’s the determination of Mike Russell as he strives to compete in every race; the highly-anticipated newcomer, Glenn Irwin, who finds his meticulous preparation is challenged by the two-week emotional rollercoaster; and his legendary team-mate, John McGuinness MBE, whose 100th TT race start leads to some searching questions for the 50-year-old. We also follow the journey of the record-breaking sidecar constructors, Tom and Ben Birchall, while no film about today’s TT would be complete without Peter Hickman, the fastest rider ever around the TT Mountain Course – and arguably the man of the moment.

‘Tourist Trophy’ is available to stream exclusively on TT+, the event’s free-to-register digital platform.

LIMITED-TIME OFFER

The film’s release will also coincide with the launch of the 2023 TT+ Live Pass .

Hickman remporte la Senior TT, finale SBK du Tourist Trophy 2023

Hickman remporte la Senior TT, finale SBK du Tourist Trophy 2023

Samedi sur l’Ile de Man, beaucoup de fans du Tourist Trophy auraient aimé que Michael Dunlop gagne la Senior TT pour égaler les 26 succès de son oncle et King Joey. Finalement, tous se sont régalés avec la 13ème victoire de Peter Hickman, sa quatrième en 2023... comme Dunlop, 3ème de cette ultime course derrière Dean Harrison.

L’an passé au Tourist Trophy, Hickman et Dunlop s’étaient partagés les victoires : Peter avait remporté les deux courses Superbike, celle de Supertock et celle de Supertwin, tandis que Michael s’était chargé des deux courses Supersport. Cette année, le partage entre les deux vedettes du "TiTi" a été équitable, quatre de chaque côté...

En 2023, le programme de la semaine de course comptait quatre courses sur 1000 cc (2 manches Superbike toujours et autant de Superstock) et quatre courses sur "petites" cylindrées (2 manches Superport encore et autant de Supertwin). Mais attention, le pilote anglais et le nord-irlandais n’ont pas uniquement gagné dans leur spécialité respective !

Certes, Hicky a signé un nouveau doublé dans la catégorie Superstock cette année, inscrivant au passage et aux commandes de sa M1000RR STK - sortie de caisse et légèrement préparée - un nouveau record absolu sur le "Snaefell Moutain Course" : une moyenne de 136.358 miles per hour, soit près de 220 km/h sur 60 km de routes - et ruelles - de campagne !

Durant la première course Superbike du TT 2023 en revanche, le n°10 du team BMW FHO Racing avait été doublement bridé par sa M1000RR de compétition : par un quickshifter et un levier droit - oui, celui du frein avant même en Angleterre - réticents ! Michael Dunlop en avait profité pour rafler la mise...

À nouveau vainqueur des deux courses Supersport, le "Racing Bull" a quant à lui été trahi vendredi dernier par sa Paton S1-R, alors que le duo s’était montré intraitable lors de la première manche Supertwin. Malgré sa Yamaha R7 pas tout à fait rodée, mais bien aidé par l’abandon de Mike Browne, "PeTTer" en a profité pour gagner sa troisième course 2023...

Samedi dernier alors que le départ de la Senior TT 2023 était donné, Michael Dunlop comptait donc une victoire de plus que Peter Hickman en 2023 (4 Vs 3) et 13 de plus au total (25 à 12 !). "MD" pouvait encore égaler deux exploits : les cinq victoires de Ian Hutchinson en 2010 (en cinq courses, alors !) et surtout, les 26 victoires de son légendaire oncle Joey Dunlop !

Hickman remporte la Senior TT, finale SBK du Tourist Trophy 2023

Hélas pour lui, son team Honda Hawk Racing et leurs innombrables fans, Michael n’a jamais été en mesure de prétendre à la victoire lors de la seconde manche Superbike : 10 secondes de retard dès la fin du 1er tour, 20 sec dans le 2ème, 27 s à mi-course, 36 s dans le quatrième, 43,5 s dans le cinquième et 40 s à l’issue de la dernière boucle... "Wait a minute..."

Les fans du "TiTi" auront bien traduit que dans le 5ème tour de cette manche SBK2, la Fireblade n°6 a été doublée sur la route par sa grande rivale M1000RR n°10 pourtant partie 40 secondes plus tard ! En comparaison, la Kawasaki n°2 qui ouvrait la "piste" - car rapidement passée devant la Honda n°1 de David Johnson - a mieux résisté en ne cédant "que" 20 secondes à la BMW victorieuse.

" Honnêtement, je ne peux pas m'en plaindre ", relativisait Dean Harrison en descendant de son sixième podium en six courses, sans avoir toutefois gravi la plus haute marche. " Bien sûr, nous venons ici pour essayer de gagner, mais il est évident que tout le monde essaie de faire la même chose ".

Exemplaires en termes de fiabilité, les ZX-10RR du Ninja anglais manquaient de vitesse de pointe pour lui permettre de jouer véritablement la gagne... Ainsi, sur la Senior TT, " le plan était de partir en trombe, plonger la tête dans le guidon et voir où ça nous mènerait. Je me suis mis dans un bon rythme et je ne voulais laisser passer personne, mais je pense que la deuxième place est le meilleur résultat que nous pouvions obtenir ".

Hickman remporte la Senior TT, finale SBK du Tourist Trophy 2023

Troisième des courses SSP1, SBK1, STK1, SSP2 et STK2 (!), "Deano" a été récompensé de tous ses efforts en SBK2 en décrochant la deuxième place : " Ce fut un bon TT pour moi et pour l'équipe, j'ai bouclé tellement de tours, la météo a été magnifique et nous avons atteint beaucoup de podiums. Je pense que j’ai mérité un peu de repose maintenant ! "

Bien malgré lui, Dean Harrison prend ainsi la relève de Guy Martin en tant que nouveau "Poupou" du "TiTi". OK, le pilote Kawa a gagné la Senior TT de 2019, mais pour mémoire, c’était autant grâce à lui... qu’à cause de la surchauffe moteur de la BMW S1000RR de Hickman !

Hickman justement, a survolé cette dernière épreuve 2023 au guidon d’une M1000RR SBK à la préparation plus poussée et plus délicate à régler que la STK... à tort, donc ? " La Superbike a été très exigeante pendant deux semaines et les gars ont travaillé sans relâche pour la faire fonctionner comme je le souhaitais ", témoignait "Hicky" samedi soir.

Après avoir hésité à prendre le départ de la Senior TT sur sa machine de Supertsock - ce qu’a fait son coéquipier australien Josh Brookes -, Peter a tenu à utiliser sa Superbike : " nous avons participé au warm-up matinal et avant d'arriver en bas de Bray Hill, j'ai poussé un énorme soupir de soulagement car j'ai tout de suite su que les gars avaient réussi ".

Hickman remporte la Senior TT, finale SBK du Tourist Trophy 2023

Le "King" du chrono sur l’Ile de Man avait à coeur de démontrer à ses détracteurs que ses excuses à l’arrivée de la première manche SBK n’en était pas : " je suis une personne honnête et si j'ai un problème, je suis heureux de le dire ", signalait l’officiel BMW.

" Je n'ai pas été super rapide, mais j'ai fait ce qu’il y avait à faire ", informait en toute transparence le pilote aux 13 victoires au Tourist Trophy désormais, soit moitié moins que le "King of the Moutain". " J'en gardais dans la poignée au cas où j’en aurais vraiment eu besoin ", signifiait Peter, sincèrement ravi de trouver Dean à sa droite sur le podium (20 secondes derrière au final) et Michael à sa gauche...

" Michael [Dunlop] a été super rapide ces deux dernières semaines, ce qui est fantastique à voir car nous recherchons cette concurrence positive ! Les autres gars nous poussent à aller de l'avant, à travailler plus dur, à essayer et courir plus fort, et nous savons déjà qu'en revenant l'année prochaine, nous tenterons notre chance ".

Tomorrow’s Senior TT will be the very last time we race the Honda RCV. It costs £1000 per lap of the TT course in engine wear alone, but we have decided that if the @RobVineFund gets £1000 in donations overnight, we’ll do the morning warm up lap on it too https://t.co/VNhmhfYuIK pic.twitter.com/56DqYw38fb — Bathams Racing (@BathamsRacing) June 9, 2023

Ce Tourist Trophy 2023 était en revanche le dernier pour la coûteuse RC213V-S du team Honda Bathams Ales : pour information, chaque tour de cette MotoGP de route revenait à 1000 livres ! Hélas, une crevaison du pneu arrière a contraint Michael Rutter à l’abandon... et lui a valu une belle frayeur, aussi, même si le bon vieux pilote est parvenu à rester sur ses roues et n’a pas abimé sa splendide monture.

L’autre vétéran du Tourist Trophy John McGuinness a terminé la huitième et dernière course du TT 2023 (sa 108ème course à titre personnel !) à une remarquable 7ème place au guidon de "sa" Fireblade, la machine la plus indiquée - par le HRC - pour les épreuves de course sur route...

À 51 ans, "McPint" garde une santé - "cheers, hips !" - incroyable : le n°3 Honda a bouclé son meilleur tour de la semaine à 131.183 mph ! Sur CBR1000RR-R aussi mais malade en début de compétition, Connor Cummins décroche une stimulante et frustrante quatrième place. Le Mannois a peut-être filé ses microbes à son coéquipier Davey Todd : pas dans son assiette, le n°8 du team Honda Padegtt’s termine à une décevante 9ème place.

Enfin, seul français au départ de cette ultime course du Tourist Trophy 2023, Amalric Blanc a rejoint l’arrivée à une très, très respectable 27ème place, effectuant sur sa BMW S1000RR un sixième et meilleur tour bouclé en 18’ 25,169. OK, Mister Hickman a bouclé son tout premier 16 43.537 (nouveau record), mais quel motard français ira lui reprocher de s’être traîné ? Sûrement pas la rédaction Moto-Net.Com en tout cas !

Die Top-3 der Senior-TT 2022: Dean Harrison (2.), Peter Hickman (Sieger), Conor Cummins (3.)

Um die Rennen zur Tourist Trophy auf der Isle of Man aus Sicht des Veranstalters zukunftsfit zu machen, wurde nach einer zweijährigen coronabedingten Pause einiges im Programmablauf umgekrempelt, allerdings nicht alles zur Zufriedenheit der leidenschaftlichsten Traditionalisten.

«Wir stoßen wegen der Tradition immer wieder auf Widerstand, das soll nicht heißen, dass wir als Organisation unsere Geschichte ablehnen oder ignorieren - aber um zu überleben und relevant zu sein und um sicherzustellen, dass die Sache auch in Zukunft weitergehen kann, muss sie sich ständig verändern», ist TT Business Development Manager Paul Phillips überzeugt.

Den Zusehern wurde nicht nur auf der Insel einiges geboten, auch die Daheimgebliebenen konnten die Action über einen eigens geschaffenen Live-Streaming-Dienst ganz bequem von zuhause verfolgt werden. Dazu gab es noch interessante Hintergrundberichte.

Nächstes Jahr gibt es einen geänderten Programmablauf, der um zwei Rennen – je eines in den Klassen Superstock und Supertwin – erweitert wurde und die Senior-TT wird von einem Freitag auf einen Samstag verlegt und schließt die Veranstaltung am 3. Juni ab. Es ist somit das erste Mal, dass die Rennwoche zwei Wochenenden umfassen wird.

Die Trainingswoche startet am Montag, dem 29. Mai 2023, und dauert bis Freitag, dem 2. Juni 2023. Das erste Rennen findet dann am Samstag, dem 3. Juni 2023, statt. Wie schon in diesem Jahr wird die gesamte Veranstaltung live auf dem Streaming-Dienst TT+ zu sehen sein.
