  1. Close enough for you?

    Just the four thousandths of a second between the lap times of Peter Hickman and Dean Harrison then!

    Almost unbelievable.

  2. The top three

    At the end of lap two

    1. Dean Harrison
    2. Peter Hickman
    3. Conor Cummins

    Harrison with a 133.7 lap, making sub-17 minutes look like par at the front now. He leads by 1.4 seconds!

    Dunlop only lapping at 131.3, incredibly quick but by his recent standards that's actually pretty average. He's 7.6 seconds off the podium at the end of lap two.

  3. Here they come, slowing for the pits. What sort of lead has Harrison got?

  4. I think the 135mph lap dream is over for this lap at least.

  5. Peter Hickman has trimmed Dean Harrison's lead to 2.6 seconds at the Bungalow! That BMW can shift.

  6. Pitstops crucial

    BBC Sport's Richard Petrie at the TT Grandstand: "The action is about to switch to the pitlane in front of a packed grandstand where the riders will refuel and change their rear tyres at the end of lap two.

    "There's no room for error for the members of the leading riders' pitcrews as every second counts in the contest for this Senior TT race win.

    "Petrol pumps are poised, jacks at the ready..."

  7. The top three

    At Ramsey on lap two of six

    1. Dean Harrison
    2. Peter Hickman
    3. Conor Cummins

    Dean Harrison is absolutely on it once again, he now holds a 4.6 second lead as the riders climb the mountain once again.

    It's a two-man race at this stage - Cummins is 19 seconds back in third. Michael Dunlop is 4.5 seconds back from Cummins in fourth.

    Dunlop missing the podium would be something of a surprise but to stress again - there is a long, long way to go!

  8. Third-placed Conor Cummins is pulling away from Michael Dunlop...

  9. Don't try this at home...

  10. 135mph lap on?

    Race leader Dean Harrison is really flying again. Could he lap this famous old course at an average speed of 135 mph?

    Maybe. Just maybe...

    Though the riders do have to slow for the pitstop at the end of lap two.

  11. Johnson out

    Confirmation from our man in the pits that David Johnson had to retire after pulling in.

  12. The top three

    At Glen Helen on lap two of six

    1. Dean Harrison
    2. Peter Hickman
    3. Conor Cummins

    Harrison has pulled the pin with a cracking sector. He now leads by 3.5 seconds, as Conor moves ahead of Michael Dunlop and into third.

    Problems for Dunlop? He is just half a second back of Cummins though.

  13. Conor Cummins still leads on the roads and he has hit Glen Helen on lap two. The flying barista was fourth at the end of the lap, chasing another podium.

  14. Michael Dunlop is about 13 seconds down on the lead at the end of lap one. Never say never, especially with the Dunlop family around the Island, but that's a big gap to make up...

  15. David Johnson has had to pull in for an unscheduled pit stop at the end of lap one. That will not do his chances any good at all.

  16. The top three

    At the end of lap one

    1. Dean Harrison
    2. Peter Hickman
    3. Michael Dunlop

    That's a 133.678 lap from Dean Harrison from a standing start. Rapid, if not quite up to the 134 pace he pulled out last weekend.

    Dean leads by 1.4 seconds at the end of lap one. Nothing really over a 37.7 mile lap...

  17. The riders are already approaching the end of their first lap. If you've ever done a lap on open roads you'll realise how insane this speed is. Took me about an hour...

  18. Dean Harrison leads Peter Hickman by 1.6 seconds at the Bungalow. Hicky closing the gap on the climb.

  19. Dean Harrison was denied a win on the big bike last Saturday after building up a big lead in his first two laps. He's at it again, can anyone live with his pace?

  20. Hillier out

    James Hillier is a retirement - the number two machine hasn't made it to Ramsey and I'm reading that he is out at Westwood.
