2012 Supersport Race 1 | Ultimate TT Races presented by Bennetts

A road traffic accident delayed the start of the first Supersport Race of 2012 by more than two hours, and although Michael Dunlop led by 10 seconds at the end of the first lap, the battle for second was red hot with just three seconds covering Gary Johnson, Cameron Donald, William Dunlop and Bruce Anstey.
Dunlop’s lead shot up to 22 seconds at half race distance but he was to retire at Balllig Bridge soon after and suddenly, the tight battle for second became the battle for the win. Johnson was now leading, five seconds clear of William Dunlop but just 0.4 seconds covered second to fourth.
Positions were changing all the time and going into the final lap, Johnson’s lead over new second place rider Anstey was down to 2 seconds, with Donald only a further 0.2 seconds adrift in third. William Dunlop was now 9 seconds back in fourth.
At Ramsey, Johnson still led but the gap between the leading trio was only 0.6 seconds. The drama continued as, little more than a mile from the finish, Johnson ran out of fuel. Donald crossed the line first but as Anstey took the flag he’d edged 0.77 seconds clear of his fellow Honda rider, taking the victory in the second-closest TT finish ever.

RIP Dan Kneen & William Dunlop thanks for the memories Lads.

The TT is truly blessed to have Steve Parrish commentate on this race. Here is a man who has done it all - TT Rider, Engineer, Mechanic, Team Manager and fan..... his knowledge of the course and the event is delicately understated but would be as good as any...

Я понимаю память великих спортсменов к этому виду спорта,но главное реальность данных соревнований .Как всегда организация соревнований на высоте ,судьи значимы и с опытом, спортсмены стараются победить Состязаются думаю по честному друг с другом.Этот соревновательный процесс просто всех захватывает и не отпускает круто ок ❤️.Соревнования прогресс развития спорта и привития любви молодежи к спорту.это главный критерий я считаю в соревнованиях И чем больше внимания привлекут молодежи ,тем больше придет в спорт любя его.. Да этот вид спорта опасен,как и другие виды спорта все специфичны и это нормально.Не перевелись на земле сильные спортсмены во всех видах спорта.И это ок ❤️.Спасибо за интересный просмотр ❤️.

I'd like to see a financial report as to how badly the TT has suffered by being cancelled from the authoritarian tyrants in the iom nazi gov. Obviously the losses are in the Millions but it would be interesting to get a solid number. 10m? 25m? 50m? 100m? Over 2 years...economic devastation. You know the powers that be on the island as well as the UK government are trying to eliminate the TT forever if you don't know that you're pretty fucking naive. Not only do they want to get rid of a TT from a financial economic standpoint to devastate the island and the residents but also under the guise of health and safety. The people of the island should have revolted stormed the capital and demanded that the TT take place. But like everybody else in the world they're rolling over and spreading their cheeks to be fecked by the new Nazis of the Fourth Reich.
