North West 200: ‘Frustrated not to be racing but excited for the event’ – Lee Johnston column

Hopefully the weather is good and we get some good fast exciting racing.

Pretty much everyone who is at the front in a road race rides a short circuit in some form these days so all the leading contenders should be dialled in.

Glenn Irwin is going to be hard to beat in the Superbikes. He’s on one of the best bikes and is in really good form.

It would take a brave man to bet against him, although the likes of Davey Todd is young and hungry and has been going really well in British championships.

British Superbikes is Glenn’s bread and butter but the North West is the only road race that he does so he’s going there to win. He’s not going there to get ready for the TT.

Six or eight riders are in with a good chance of winning and while the North West is a great event for the likes of Peter Hickman, Dean Harrison and Michael Dunlop, to them the TT is the main race of the year and the big pay day.

What they would lay out to win the North West wouldn’t be what they would lay out to win the TT in my opinion.

That’s not belittling the North West, that’s just the fact of it.
