    It's been a really good two weeks of sunny weather, beer and road racing on the Island and the finale is today with the Lightweight Supertwins Race and the prestigious Senior Race :50:

    Michael Dunlop had the chance to win a record-breaking six TT races in one week but he has pulled out of the Lightweight to focus on the Senior. He's already won four events and will match the current record of five if he wins the Senior. Up against strong competition though in TT maverick John McGuinness and Bruce Anstey.

    Paddy Power betting: Lightweight Race, Senior Race

    Watch: ITV4 Highlights
    Friday's Racing Highlights, ITV4 9PM

    *If you don't know anything about the TT you should watch this film!

    Five people have died this year so far. About 250 deaths since it started in 1907.

    Are these guys modern day gladiators or just stupid? Going out doing what you love I suppose. Read that it's similar figures to those who die climbing Everest which is an interesting way to look at it.
