This year suffered from consistent inclement weather that affected the schedule and length of the races. The competitors only had two days of practice and only two were run at full length – the one-lap TT Zero and six-lap Dunlop Senior TT. This resulted in only one record being broken which was during the opening Sidecar race for Ben Birchall and Tom Birchall achieving a race time of 57:24.005 and race speed average of 118.317 mph (190.413 km/h).[1]

This was the final year that the TT Zero event was held.[2]

The event saw the unfortunate passing of one competitor during the opening RST Superbike race, Daley Mathison from England.[3]
