Michael Dunlop capped a dominant week at the Isle of Man TT by taking the Supersport title on a Ducati, the first rider to win on that brand in 30 years. After a rough Superbike outing, the Northern Irishman returned to the 37.73‑mile circuit, leading practice and then pulling away from the Honda pair on the second lap today and again.

Harrison took second, trailing by a tenth after a hard first lap, while Harry Hickman claimed third after matching Dunlop’s strong second‑lap pace. Harrison admitted the Ducati’s speed was a challenge, noting the Honda stayed consistent throughout. Hickman described the course as possibly the wettest he’d ever ridden, yet praised the riders’ performance on that day and they won their.

With the rescheduled Sportbike race set for 18:30 BST, Dunlop is the favorite to defend his lead. The Superstock event remains cancelled due to lingering rain, shifting the weekend’s focus to the two top machines. Fans will watch to see if the Ducati’s dominance continues or if rivals can close the gap in the remaining races for the season this.
