With the island experiencing a quite frankly bloody awful few days, MGP organisers have rejigged the schedule for the next few days.
Organisers hope the new schedule will allow as many qualifying opportunities as possible.
A spokesperson said: “Since the beginning of this year’s Manx Grand Prix, the island has faced a period of unseasonably bad weather that has resulted in the cancellation of all qualifying sessions for three consecutive days.
“In response, the Clerk of The Course has issued a revised schedule for the remainder of the event that will utilise the contingency sessions available for Thursday afternoon, Friday evening and Sunday afternoon.
“Friday will now only be used for qualifying to reduce any pressure on competitors and ensure they have plenty of opportunity to qualify ahead of the MGP race programme commencing on Saturday.”
