Could next year's TT be run on a different schedule?
The government is proposing changes to the 2020 fixtures which, officials say, are aimed at improving spectator entertainment and reducing demands on teams, riders, volunteers and local residents.
Among the alterations being suggested are the practice week starting a day later on Sunday, May 31; the final qualifying session moving to an afternoon slot on June 5; and race days on June 6, 8 and 10 starting with a one-lap solo warm up session in the morning.
Race organisers, ACU Events Ltd, will now submit the potential schedule to the Department of Infrastructure for consideration.
