Davey Todd expressed that the cancellation of the Senior TT race at the 2025 Isle of Man TT Grand Finale felt like a personal loss, but he supports the decision made by the event organizers. The race, scheduled for six laps starting at 10:45 am local time on Saturday, June 7th, was postponed due to overnight rain making the track unsafe. Initially delayed by four hours and reduced to four laps, the race was ultimately canceled after a course inspection and rider feedback highlighted dangerous windy conditions.
Todd, last year’s Senior TT winner and the Superbike TT victor earlier in the week, shared that despite his deep desire to race and win, he understood the necessity of the decision for everyone’s safety. Riding during the inspection lap, he experienced the challenging and unpredictable conditions firsthand at high speeds, which reinforced that canceling was the responsible choice. Todd conveyed his disappointment but acknowledged the safety of fans, riders, and organizers must come first.
Fan Take: This cancellation is a tough blow for fans and riders who live for the thrill of Isle of Man TT racing. However, prioritizing safety ensures the sport remains sustainable and preserves the well-being of its competitors, setting a strong example for future events.
