Default RIP Robert Dunlop

Former Isle of Man TT winner Robert Dunlop died on Thursday night after a horrific crash during a practice race in Northern Ireland.

The Co Antrim rider, brother of the legendary Joey Dunlop, who was killed in a similar accident in Estonia in 2000, was injured in the North West 200 in Portrush.

His bike appeared to seize at the Mathers Cross section of the course. He was rushed to the Causeway Hospital in Coleraine, Co Londonderry, where he died from his injuries shortly after 10pm.
