Perfect conditions set the stage for the opening qualifying session at TT 2026, and the riders didn’t disappoint. Dean Harrison leads the charge with the fastest ever opening lap at over 133mph, while Michael Dunlop, Josh Brooekes and Nathan Harrison join the 130mph club on the big bikes. Across the classes, Dunlop tops Supersport, and Paul Jordan leads the way in the evolving Sportbike category. In the sidecars, Ryan and Callum Crow underline their status as the team to beat with a commanding performance. An early end to the session sees the red flag brought out following an incident at Brandish, bringing an action-packed night to a close. _______________________________________________ Sign up to TT+ for Live Coverage and exclusive FREE content: https://ttplus.iomttraces.com/browse To find out more visit https://www.iomttraces.com, the official home of the TT.

this is 1000 times better than anything F1 could do within the last 15 years
Safe riding to all the riders on their quest for that win :)
Hope Maria Costello and Shaun Parker will make a speedy recovery
Rest in Peace, Daniel Ingham.
Lets go Brooksy! 🦘🇦🇺
The more I'm getting old (55 right now), the hardest is to watch the TT. I'm scared like never before. And boy: I've had a couple of serious motorcycle accidents, but I still ride.
The raw insanity of these speeds around this course never ceases to amaze!
Good luck to everyone there, and great cover this year keep it up 🤟
Did I just glimpse a back wheel drift during a wheelie...?!
Such an amazing event Peak motorsport ❤
Let's go Michael Dunlop king of the mountain MBE33 from the bull to the goat 🐐
Nice to see HRC doing so well for a change...
Would love to see John Mac get one more!
Where's Mcguiness?
Why tell us the fastest first ??? It makes the whole rest of the video pointless. Come on folks... Sort it out.
Che spettacolo ragazzi, fantastico. ❤❤❤
god bless for all riders.
Best wishes to the outfit that crashed. Hopefully they are OK and can continue, but if they can't, get well soon.
One of the last original human endeavors in motorsport. It is all or nothing everytime they throw a leg over. Fantastic that this event continues and it must continue!
Hicky is still healing. I hope he takes it somewhat easy, even though I know that’s a ridiculous statement for IOMTT, but I’d rather him finish healthy and be ready to take on the rest of the season circuit.
