Ian Hutchinson equalled the late, great Mike Hailwood’s tally of 14 wins when he dominated Wednesday’s delayed second Monster Energy Supersport race at the 2016 Isle of Man TT Races fuelled by Monster Energy.

The CAME BPT/Team Traction Control Yamaha dominated from start to finish to take his third win of the week and his fourth Supersport win in a row following last year’s double and his win earlier this week. It was also his eighth Supersport win in total.

R6-mounted Hutchinson’s eventual winning margin was 17.5s with Michael Dunlop overcoming the disappointment of Monday’s disqualification to claim second with Dean Harrison on the podium again in third.

Bruce Anstey won a hectic SES TT Zero for Japanese tech-specialists Mugen with a lap speed of 118mph on Wednesday afternoon. The Flying Kiwi took the lead from team mate John McGuinness at Ballaugh as the Morecambe man suffered a temporary technical problem.

William Dunlop on the Victory Brammo Power machine pushed Anstey hard, taking a well-earned second, comfortably ahead of Daley Mathison on the University of Nottingham’s entry. McGuinness, winner of the last two SES TT Zero races and current class lap record holder, later managed to restart his machine to finish fourth overall.

Devitt RC Express Racing’s Ivan Lintin won the Bennetts Lightweight TT to become the first rider to take back-to-back victories in the race. James Hillier took second place 12.472 seconds down on Lintin and an ecstatic Martin Jessopp claimed his first TT podium in third.
