Busy schedule will include 'Made at the Manx' centenary parade
The first three races of the 2023 Manx Grand Prix are scheduled to take place on the Snaefell Mountain Course today (26 August).
A busy, revised programme is in place after Friday's final qualifying session was cancelled due to poor weather.
Roads around the course will shut from 11am before a warm-up lap takes place at 11.30am.
That will be followed by a one-lap Sidecar TT tyre test involving four current sidecar teams at 11.50am.
Then comes the first race of this year's event at 12.45pm - the Classic Senior MGP - which will take place over a reduced distance of three laps.
Immediately after, the Junior MGP race will commence at 2.45pm over four laps.
A break in racing follows in which the 'Made at the Manx' Centenary Parade Lap will be carried out at 4.45pm which will pay tribute to some of the most successful riders in the event's 100-year history.
Saturday's schedule is then scheduled to be rounded off with the three-lap Lightweight MGP Race which is penned in to start at 6pm.
Roads around the course are then due to reopen no later than 9pm.
