John McGuinness has won the Senior Classic TT race for the third time.

The 47-year-old from Morecambe finished ahead of both Stefano Bonetti and Jamie Coward who had to settle for second and third positions respectively.

Bonetti's 2nd place finish saw him cross the line just shy of 28 seconds behind McGuinness in this afternoons showdown, whilst Coward managed to overhaul Maria Costello in the final lap to secure third place.

Up next this evening is the Lightweight Classic TT which is due to get underway at the revised time of 6.45pm.
