T
he 2015 Isle of Man TT once
again lived up to its reputation
as the premier road racing event
in the world with two weeks of
incredible action between the
houses and over the mountain of
the world's most famous motor-
cycle racing circuit. Most of the
talking point surrounded the in-
spiring return of Ian Hutchinson—
riding with a right foot gearch-
ange and thumb-operated rear
brake, 'Bingley Bullet' was back
to full fitness after five years of re-
covery following an horrific leg in-
jury suffered at Silverstone. And
he announced his arrival back at
the top of TT racing with victory in
both Supersport TTs and the Su-
perstock TT. The Yorkshireman's
emotion after winning the first
Supersport TT of the week was
clear to see, with tears flowing in
the post race press conference
as he thanked the vast array of
medical professionals, family
and friends involved with saving
his left leg.
But the fairytale of seeing
'Hutchy' atop the Senior TT
podium didn't pan out as the
redoubtable John McGuinness
pulled a rabbit out of the hat to
claim the Senior, his 23rd vic-
tory on the Island, as he claimed
a new outright lap record with
John McGuinness
saved his best
until last with an
amazing ride in
the Senior TT.
