Statement from Alan Founds racing ( Weds Evening )

***OFFICIAL STATEMENT***
Alan will be making an appearance in practice tonight with passenger Colin Smyth. Its the first time out for the pairing so it will be steady away to give the boys time to settle in.
We are devastated and upset by this week’s events and we do not condon any of the actions that have lead to this situation. We respect the clerk of the course’s decisions and fully support the testing of all riders and passengers at the TT.
We will not be making any further comment on this and as a team we wish to move on and concentrate on achieving 2 finishes at TT 2023.
