John McGuiness has had a big crash. Conscious but he's said to have broken a leg.

That will be a massive blow to him and the TT.

Heard about the crash. Hope he's alright proper shame to see him out of the TT on his new bike as well

Sounds like he has some fairly big breaks. Feel really sorry for him, he's a big plus to the sport. Hope he makes a full recovery.

I forget how old he is.

That sounds career ending to me, given his age.

Doesn't get any better for Honda either. they have withdrawn from the NW200 as they don't seem to know what caused the crash.

Must confess i thought he as about 41. As you say at 45, that might signal the end of his career.

Real shame was looking forward to watching him go round the TT.

Big up to Glenn Irwin for winning his first race on the Ducati.

[Cav]

That race was spectacular! Genuinely not had my heart in my mouth like that before

[Kwacky]

I get scared just watching it. They're madmen.

[Jack]

that was probably the best race I have ever seen at the NW200 , couldn't believe how unstable that Ducati looked when flat out it was snaking about all over the place .
