There's a new solo champion at the Southern 100.

Dean Harrison won the Manx Gas Solo Championship race this afternoon, finishing just ahead of Dan Kneen and Michael Dunlop.

Third-placed Dunlop set a new absolute lap record of 115.7mph during the race.

It's the second time today he's done so.

Here's the moment Harrison won, as described by Tim Glover: (play audio)

The Sidecar Championship race was won by John Holden and Lee Cain, ahead of Wayne Lockey / Mark Sayers and Conrad Harrison / Andrew Winkle.

The Birchall brothers, Tom and Ben, set a new absolute lap record of 101.545mph during the race.

They were also excluded from the result, after causing the race to be red-flagged.

That followed an incident near Cross Four Ways, which also involved Tim Reeves and his passenger, Mark Wilkes
