Well, what a week it's been.

We've had a bit of everything and it's been a thrilling Saturday programme, with record-breaking Glenn Irwin once again the star of the show after reigning supreme in the Superbike class.

There's been stories and sunshine aplenty, and while there's been one or two issues with crowd control, we've thankfully had no major incidents.

A quick shout-out to John McGuinness and Jeremy McWilliams, who claimed podium finishes this afternoon at the respective ages of 52 and 60.

Roll on the 2025 North West 200!

There was talk of Davey Todd bringing a challenge and he did that all day long in every race he was in.

There was a lot of pressure on Glenn [Irwin] and a lot of talk, but this is his main race at home and the only race he gets to race in Northern Ireland.

Outside of actually riding a motorbike there are a lot of noises but he didn't faulter one bit and held on strong to get three wins.

Six races, three different winners in the Northern Ireland sunshine.

Davey Todd, Glenn Irwin and Peter Hickman have plenty to celebrate.

Aside from his crash on Thursday - which wasn't his fault - Todd picked up three wins and wasn't out of the top two in any of his races. That's pretty impressive!

One of my best North West 200s - seeing the crowds, seeing the sunshine and the racing that has gone on.

I'm pleased and hope that there hasn't been many incidents.

It's a day to celebrate for Glenn Irwin as he makes it 11 Superbike wins in a row at the North West 200.

You could sense his joy and elation during his celebrations - even if he felt they didn't sum how how happy he felt.

Davey Todd pushed him all the way and he'll be looking for podiums and wins at the Isle of Man TT around the corner.

Dean Harrison speaking to BBC Sport NI:

"It were fast from the start, I tried to hang on to those two for as long as I could.

"We had a bit of a rough day with the race before but we tried to make the most of it really and to say thanks to all the boys for working so hard all week really.

"I'm over the moon, we've had bad luck and little things have got in our way. The bike is a brand new motorbike for this year so it's just going to get better and better."

The moment Irwin made (even more) history.

Davey Todd speaking to BBC Sport NI:

"I would like to say I am [happy] but we came here to win the race and hats off to Glenn [Irwin] he rode really well there. I felt like I did everything I could, there was nothing between us. You look where I was stronger and where he was stronger and there was nothing in it.

"The lap times weren't anything special but it was that mental battle of where we were going to pass each other and there was nothing on the brakes, passing on the slipstream was the only way either of us could do it. He is late on the brakes and so am I."

Glenn Irwin: "Eleven in a row is cool. But a treble at Oulton Park in the British Superbikes, and a treble here - that's my greatest achievement in racing. I didn't know what I'd do if I won 11 races in a row, I'm quite a strong personality. I said no to the TT, and I'll never, ever be back there, and before the race I was thinking that about here. But I love this event, and if I leave then Mervyn [Whyte, event director] is going to have a headache because the fans are going to disappear.

He laughs: "Nah, I love this place."

Glenn Irwin: "It's really, really special. When I tell people that I feel on top of my game, an abundance of clarity and happiness in my life, my love for the team - I have worked so hard, and so have the team.

"To come and respond to such a great rider like Davey, and Dean is pushing so hard, it hasn't been easy and the guys are riding so hard. The bike was jumping out of gear, I'm sure you've seen it a few times. It kept letting Davey get away. It's so hard to explain, but when you feel like something is going to happen in life, it happens. That how powerful humans are. You can write your own destiny if you put the work in. It can also be negative, like it was to me for a long. But to anyone listening, never give up and keep believing in your dreams, they come true."

Glenn Irwin is running about celebrating!

He's been in the crowd, doing push-ups - it's safe to say he's enjoying it!

All that hard work has paid off.

Awesome job from Davey Todd, he has done a lot of riding today and he has pushed Glenn Irwin I believe the hardest.

What a race!

WOW! WOW! WOW!

Irwin does burnouts and his Superbike domination continues! But he was pushed all the way by Todd and Harrison, who was sublime on his Honda Superstock!

THEY HAVE TO GO AROUND A BACK MARKER! THE CROWD ARE GOING WILD!

TODD GOES FOR IT BUT IRWIN SHUTS THE DOOR!

Irwin leads through Metropole, Todd is too far back!

Just the run up the coast road to go!
