I am just so sad that this crash has shown up that after 100 years of racing, the organisation at the top still make themselves look like the captain of the Titanic.
My (no doubt unpopular) view is that for a wide range of reasons the TT has become untenable, and the top level management having done nothing to restrict the performance of the motorcycles allowed - unlike every other branch of motorsport - or ensured that the course is kept in such a condition that it restricts speeds, and constantly reviewed these things every year along with a comittee drawn from the top 20 finishers across all classes - have got their heads so far in the sand that they will not get them out again.
Moving further and further away from maintaining and celebrating the heritage of the TT will only put another screw or two in its coffin.
Ask yourselves one question: if the Mountain Course was proposed to be created today, for the machines of today, would it get a licence, and thus would the event ever happen?
