    It's got a bit windy and it's still quite cool, the track temperature is 32.5 degrees. We have had it hotter than that this week. Certainly no rain in the oven though!

    Davey Todd claimed victory in the opening Superbike race on Thursday, and it was a belter.

    Will we have more of the same for this one?

    British Superstock rider David Allingham speaking on BBC iPlayer about Alastair Seeley's problems on Thursday: "We were unfortunate on Thursday night.

    "We had an engine failure so the guys didn't panic and we got the new engine in the bike and it should be all good today."

    Michael Rutter, one of the elder statesmen of road racing, will make his 100th North West 200 start in this race.

    He was the first rider to hit 200mph on the speedtrap in 2004, has 14 wins at the NW200 to his name and is still going strong.

    What a legend!

    Michael Dunlop speaking on BBC iPlayer: "It's been good. Up and down on Thursday, that tip off but to come back and win two races is fantastic.

    "There is no reason why I can't be competitive. When the bike arrived we found, not an issue with the bike, but there's an component.

    "My shoulder is OK and I'm just stiff. The shoulder, there is a lot more pain today obviously as it was on Thursday as I had a day to relax and sit down.

    "But I can't complain, I have four races to do today I have to shut my face and get on with it."

    Alastair Seeley looks quite good out on the race track and he looks quite competitive but machinery wise, he is just a bit down.

    Everything that Ian Hutchinson has been through and he is so hard working behind the scenes. He is in the gym, training and doing everything he has to do to get back to where is was and to get that podium the other night shows that all the hard work does pay off.

    It'll be interesting to see what he can do today.

    With the 8Ten Racing team it is the first time we have had two top riders in the same team but with different tyres.

    One on Dunlop and one on Metzeler. It's 1-0 to Metzeler so far because Davey [Todd] obviously won the first Superbike race.

    Michael Dunlop has came here to put a push on and to win races. I fully believe he is going to try and stamp his authority today and win more races.

    There are three or four guys who could win this race which is great. I don't think anyone is going to run away with it.

    World Superbike rider Scott Redding speaking on BBC iPlayer: "I just watched the Supertwins there and I thought that looked fast so I'm interested in seeing the Superbikes. Watching them disappear is mental and you get goosebumps straight away.

    "It's an amazing atmosphere and it's great to be at the North West 200."

    More from Glenn Irwin on BBC iPlayer: "I dreamt of winning one race here and to go on and to win 11 consecutively is something I never thought of.

    "I am very proud of what I done and proud to know to call it a day and concentrate on bringing the British Superbike Championship to Northern Ireland.

    "Who knows what the future brings. In life we make choices and choices can change as well.

    "I would love to stick to my guns and to continue being here in an ambassador role, but you never know and you can never rule out a return [to the North West 200 as a rider] at any point."

    11-time NW200 Superbike winner Glenn Irwin speaking on BBC iPlayer: "I thought it was very good [the Supertwins race] and I thought Adam McLean rode incredibly well.

    "I had Richard Cooper down for the win in that one. He is quite small in stature, very experienced and I think he played a great game and the game plan worked.

    "I think the most impressive rider in the race was Jeremy McWilliams. I spoke to him on the grid before and he was really, really calm. A calm Jeremy is not something you see very often!"

    We did have a red flag at the end of the Supertwin race, so the provisional results are yet to be fully sent to us.
