2000 Formula 1 TT | Ultimate TT Races presented by Bennetts

In what would be his final TT appearance, Joey Dunlop stunned the road racing world when, at the age of 48, he rolled back the years and defeated rising stars such as David Jefferies, John McGuinness and Michael Rutter to stand on the top step of the podium for the 24th time.
It was a stunning performance by the 'King of the Roads' who would go on to take a hat-trick of victories that year.

How can you not admire and respect this man.. on the track plus his humanitarian aid with children

[@edgarwallace6272]

Joey was my idol and to win at the age of 48 is fantastic

[@ZeroBoostBuick]

Coolest Podium ever ! Rutter Joey McPint

[@Drifty40]

RIP Joey Your legend will live on in the history books. 🙂

[@johnpartridge7623]

There'll never be another Joey & I hope his 26 wins stays a record for a long time. RIP Joey, Robert & William thanks for the memories.

[@Halpin112]

Michael is still young enough and fast catching his uncles record , it would be nice for him to do it or even match it

11-25-22!!!!!!! Not sure how many times I have seen this! I can watch it over and over and dream I was there. Long live the king! There never has been his equal. Again along with Joey Dunlop the all-time greatest and king of my writing world!! Cheers to all who read this and all riders, great and small

[@jfoz7602]

Could never get bored of these old videos of the past legends screaming through the island.

[@mauser8515]

As an American teenager I had the Honda SP1 on my wall. Epic rider. Hate I never saw him race in person. Managed to meet his wife, daughter and see his nephews race in person. Fantastic country with a passionate people for road racing.

[@patrickmarley1241]

There will never be another Joey. He was my hero as a kid and still is today.

[@andrewmullen4003]

3 legends on the podium. I'm honoured to have seen all 3 race, not at the TT but at the Ulster and the NW.

[@toddmartin6572]

Robert is pure class and so much love for his brother. Rip to you both and now to William Dunlop

[@Onlineghost2ohm]

Joey Dunlop must have the most recognizable ARAI sponsored lid ever produced. Keen riders can notice it a mile away. Always wore ARAI, and still do. Honda was 100% always was about the Man Time Trials since day-1, the RC-51 was the hottest thing in 2000. A great time to be a motorcycle rider/racer. R.I.P Joey Dunlop (and family)…

[@grantlinscott9778]

I'm standing on the left at 8:41...and I too cried a few weeks later😢 One of a kind....

[@mckenzie125]

Isn't it great watching these old videos. Just the bike sounds. And the commentators. No wanky music

[@cootersmy19]

Had to be one of the best times in road racing hard to believe it’s 20years ago joeys the man no 48 yr old will do that again

[@WHU63]

Someone might beat his TT record some day, but there will never be another Joey Dunlop. The man was so humble. He didn't want to be a superstar. He just loved racing motorcycles.

[@anthonywebber8152]

Damn it Joey , you need to still be here.. you’d still be blowing them away. Rip you legend

[@jonbda]

Still makes me laugh that Joey told Honda Britain to stick the Fireblade they wanted him to race that year to ride his VTR. And just how quickly Honda got him all the best bits for said bike to the island (and some HRC mechanics iirc or is that just my age?)...bloody legend!!!

[@paulprescott7913]

Yes thats because he threatened to bring his RC45 across and race that instead.

[@dylanh9435]

@@paulprescott7913 he threatend to race an rc45 is that true

[@dylanh9435]

@@paulprescott7913 it was probably true he beat R1's at the 1999 Dundrod but i dont think the RC45 would of cut it against the fireblades and R1's in 2000 on the mountain course

[@mckenzie125]

I'd imagine he fettled the vtr himself. Honda failed him a few times and he wasn't prepared to take another chance

[@darrenwall5439]

Joey's second pit stop was like clockwork, that rear wheel set up was super trick

[@patrickfoster4586]

The brilliance of Dunlop on display here. Hard to believe he would be gone just a couple weeks later. Legend. Cheers P[>

Man oh man. Great video !!!!! High on my Bucket list.... to visit the Isle at Race time. My Brother who passed away a couple of weeks ago, said he has a friend who's family has a place on the Isle.

He went from one of the smallest villages in Ireland to the pinnacle of success but never forgot his roots or left County Antrim. Sadly he never got to enjoy the laurels of his victories.
