The Isle of Man TT session⛦ on Tuesday was cancelled due to bad weather.

An official statement, about half an hour after the bikes were due to go out, read: "Due to declining weather conditions around the TT Mountain Course tonight's session has now been ca💙ncelled.

"Please remembꦐer that all roads ✨on the course currently remain closed."

Weather had been poor all day on the Isle of Man, although it🍰 did brighten up throughout the afternoon.

As a result the session, due to begin at 6.30pm🔥, was not cancelled or even delayed in advaꦰnce.

But, with riders ready to go at 6.30pm, spo൩ts of rain began to fall again.

After a calm wai𝐆t of around 30 minutes, the session was officially called off.

It was due to be the second Qualifying session, featuring Superbike and Superstock classes, then Supe🐼rsport and Supertwin, and then Sidecars.

The weather forecast is promising for Wednesday♑, and for the the majority of the next fortnight.

From 6.30pm on Wednesday, the Superbikes, Superstocks and Supersports will head out, followed by the Sid�꧅�ecars at 8.10pm.
