Ian Hutchinson won his third consecutive Isle of Man TT supersport race after winning Monday’s opening event, finishing nearly 15 seconds ahead of Saturday’s victor Michael Dunlop to join the Northern Irishman on the same number of wins around the TT course.
After winning both supersport races last year on the Team Traction Control Yamaha R6, Hutchinson was the favourite heading into Monday’s opening race and the Yorkshireman fully justified his billing, leading from start to finish to claim his first win of the week and set himself up perfectly for the afternoon’s superstock race.

Technical discrepancies - i.e. not a legal bike in the class. They have said they don't think it was deliberate.Perkles wrote:whys he disqualified ?

Ian Hutchinson made it two wins in a day when he smashed the lap and race records in Monday afternoon’s RL360 Quantum Superstock TT race, the Tyco BMW rider leading from start to finish to take victory by 27 seconds.
With an opening lap of 133.098mph, it was the Bingley rider’s 13th TT race win as Dean Harrison and James Hillier battled all the way for the runner up position, Harrison clinching it by just one second.
As he had done earlier in the morning, Hutchinson blazed a trail from the off and he was again leading at Glen Helen on the opening lap, his advantage over Michael Dunlop two seconds with Gary Johnson a similar distance behind in third. It was close behind the leading trio with Michael Rutter, Peter Hickman and Hillier separated by just three-quarters of a second.
It was clear Hutchinson was putting in a remarkable lap and so it proved as he flashed across the line at a speed of 133.098mph, faster than he’d done in Saturday’s RST Superbike race. The gap to Dunlop had grown to 15.9s but the Ulsterman was in trouble, pulling into the pits with a broken gear lever. Hillier had moved up to third with Harrison, Johnson and Lee Johnston now the top six.
