Southern 100 Racing, promoters of the Isle of Man Steam Packet Company Southern 100 Road Races are proposing to amend the Practice and Race Schedule for the 2025 Road Races, which will be held Monday to Thursday 7th – 10thJuly.
Subject to the Road Closing Orders being approved it is anticipated that Practicing will commence on the afternoon of Bank Holiday Monday 7th July, between 1.45pm and 4.00pm.
Two contingency periods are proposed, the first on Wednesday 9th July between 1.15pm and 3.15pm, only to be used if any of the practice sessions are lost on Monday or Tuesday.
The second contingency period is for Thursday evening, between 6.00pm and 8.30pm, again only to be actioned if racing on Championship Day is lost.
Southern 100 Race Secretary said: ‘Safety is the highest priority, and practice is a very important component of the event, and we decided that an additional session on the Monday afternoon would ease the pressure on the evening session, especially for newcomers to the races.
‘The contingency sessions would only be activated, firstly on the Wednesday afternoon, in the event of Monday or Tuesday sessions being lost and Thursday evening, should a large part of Thursday be lost.’
The Roads Closing Order being requested is as follows:

- Monday Evening from 6pm until 9:40pm
- Tuesday Evening from 6pm until 9:40pm

- Wednesday Evening from 6pm until 9:40pm
- Thursday Morning from 9:30am until 12:45pm
