The brother of a TT rider who was killed in an accident during this week's racing will flag one of today's races.
Organisers say Angel Torras Martinez will flag the second Carole Nash Supertwin Race, after his brother Raul died during the first on Tuesday in the third and final lap.
Angel commented ‘I am honoured to be able to flag the race as a way of symbolising my brother Raul’s undoubted passion for the Isle of Man TT Races and his clear love of road racing.'
He added that 'myself and my family were incredibly proud of all Raul achieved as the fastest Spaniard to have competed and will continue to support and follow the TT.’
The Supertwin race gets underway at 2pm this afternoon.
