The numbers at which the top twenty riders at this year’s Isle of Man TT go off the line have been released, with twenty one time TT winner John McGuinness once again taking over the number one plate for the solo races.

However, McGuinness will be a target to the chasing pack, with three out of the fours riders behind him all members of the 131mph lap club, including Michael Dunlop at number three and lap record holder Bruce Anstey at five.

With one of the mot comeptitve fields ever, the top twenty riders have now all lapped at over 127mph, including record breaking 2014 newcomer Peter Hickman, who goes off at seventeen.

Outside the top twenty, a further 71 riders have been selected to qualify for the remaining 52 grid positions, with the top seventy all now having lapped at over 120mph.
