Manx Grand Prix Tonight ITV4 8PM

[kestrel]

Tuesday Feb 5th 8PM ITV4.

A documentary about the Manx Grand Prix sure to be a hit with petrol-heads and motorbike enthusiasts across the UK will be broadcast on ITV4 early next month.

‘Grand Prix Racer’ was filmed and produced by Greenlight Television and offers an inside look into the race meet which has in the past been overshadowed by the TT festival.

This is set to become a thing of the past from this year however, with a rejuvenated event planned for August.


Although it will still retain the Grand Prix races there will be an extra emphasis on the classic machines with new events and entertainment planned.

Manx Motor Cycle Club Chairman, Harvey Garton says the documentary gives a great insight for both newcomer racers and for the general public to see how much commitment riders give to the challenge of the Mountain Circuit.

I thought it was great. Showed all the new riders looking all eager eyed as they got off the bus after their explaining lap on the coach. A few days later they're on race day and the eager looks have been replaced by serious concentration. Fantastic to see the change in these guys as they realize the course is not your local track day they learnt to ride fast on.

As for the guys that died. The TT takes an average of 2 - 3 lives every year. It happens and I can bet these guys died doing something they loved and not pissing themselves and ranting as they lose their marbles in some old folks home.
