The 250cc Moto3 machines were previously included in the 125/400 races at the July meeting and it was proposed and approved that they be included in the 250cc/650cc races not only at the Southern 100, but to include them in the Post TT races as well.

Clerk of the Course, Peter Oates said: “The Moto3 racing machines are a relatively new class that has attracted a small number of entries to date and the club has decided to include them in the 250/650cc races at both the Post TT and Southern 100 races, hoping the entries will continue to grow.”
