hutchy disqualified !!!!!!!!!!!!
Ian Hutchinson has been disqualified from the results of today's TT
Supersport race. The organisers have deemed the bike illegal due to a 0.2mm
difference in cam dimensions.

Both Ian and the team are devastated with the decision as everyone agreed
there was absolutely no performance advantage in the engine, even if the
dimensions given were verified and measuring devices calibrated.

A TT spokesman confirmed this and said there had been no question of
Yorkshireman Hutchinson deliberately cheating. "It is probably purely a
mistake by the manufacturers of the camshaft," he said. "The Kawasaki would
not have benefited from any gain in power and there is no question of
cheating."

The team have yet to decide any further action but stand by the performance
of the bike and Ian's outstanding ride.

First of, congradulations to Ian for a brilliant race, you earned a well placed 2nd in that race mate, as John said.
