    That's not dust being kicked up, that's water. There's a whole series of these races, run on closed public roads in the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland, England and the Isle of Man. The first race was the Ulster Grand Prix, the second was the North West 200, both of which are in Northern Ireland. The most famous race of the series is the Isle of Man TT, the Isle of Man is an island mid-way between Ireland and Great Britain. The Tourist Trophy is the oldest race in motorcycle history, first run in 1905, and annually since 1907, at 37.73miles, it's the longest course in the world, and whereas the other races are all mass starts, TT riders start individually at ten second intervals. The TT is held over two weeks, one week for practice, one week for racing, 7 races for different classes, including 2 three wheeler sidecar races, the sidecars and smaller bikes complete 4 laps, the bigger bikes complete 6. You're racing the clock, fastest man to finish wins. Lap record holder is Peter Hickman, in 2023 he did a lap averaging 136+mph, there's a POV of that lap on CZcams.

    TT means Tourist Trophy, the name of the race, six laps.

  • @speleokeir
    @speleokeir Před 25 dny +5

    The Isle of Man is in the Irish sea between Britain and Ireland. For a long time it was controlled by the Vikings/Kingdom of Norway.
    It's not part of the UK but a Crown Dependency (as are the channel Islands Jersey & Guernsey near France). Technically the King is their head of council, but in reality they are largely self governing though under British protection.
    The TT (Tourist trophy) consists of a week of practice sessions followed by a week of time trial races of three laps over a 38 mile course around the island.
    The TT is widely regarded as the most dangerous race in the world and fatalities are sadly not unusual over the two weeks.
    As others have said the clips in the video are from road races in Ireland, rather than the TT,, although they feature many of the same competitors and their bikes.

    What you see is obviously not dust, it's water. You can see that the ground is wet. Furthermore, all these shots, despite the title of the video, have nothing to do with the TT. At the Tourist Trophy you race one at a time against the clock, while here as you can see they are in a group like in a normal track race. This is still a nice compilation video of public road races in Great Britain, but the TT remains absolutely in a world of its own in terms of charm and unfortunately also in terms of danger!

  • @DrPoiterer
    @DrPoiterer Před 23 dny

    The Isle of Man TT is one of the most amazing but also crazy and dangerous races i've seen. It has something close to a 2.5 avg of deaths per race (if I remember correctly). It's said that before departing to the IoM TT some of the drivers just say goodbye when going, because they know that its very likely that someone won't come back, and it might be them. That said, it is absolutely incredible watching the pilots just pushing to the absolute limit of human and bike capabilities in normal roads and through the city. There's really no other race like it and I urge you to check out videos of the Time Trials in the Isle of Man TT, it is just something else.

  • @dzzope
    @dzzope Před 25 dny

    As many others pointed out, most of this was Irish road racing rather than the IoM TT.
    The IoM is legendary because of it's length. It's too long to easily memorise and very easy to mistake 1 corner for another.
    Road racing on the other had adds racing for position into the mix on similar roads (sometimes much smaller and bumpier, sometimes smoother and wider but always exciting..
    The most amazing memory I have of any motorsport is being on the back straight of the NW200 and the bikes passing us 4 wide @200mph.. unreal.

    This didn't actually look like the TT - riders in that don't do a massed start. The IOM TT is world's most dangerous race - and the racers love it that way. You have to be crazy to ride the Isle Of Man TT, but it's the pinnacle of motorcycle racing. The Isle of Man is a British territory (technically a crown dependency) between Great Britain and Ireland. It's about 35 miles by 15 miles in size, very hilly, and the Tourist Trophy (TT) races go around it on public roads the whole way. Madness on two wheels.
