The 2017 Isle of Man TT was held between 27 May and 9 June, on the Isle of Man TT Mountain Course.
The event saw adverse weather conditions which caused many delays and the cancellation of the second Supersport race.
Just like 2016, the solo classes were marked by an intense rivalry between Michael Dunlop and Ian Hutchinson. This rivalry culminated in the 2017 Senior TT, won by Dunlop, while Hutchinson suffered serious leg injuries in a race-stopping crash in the mountain section. In the end, Hutchinson and Dunlop left the island with 2 TT wins each.
Ben and Tom Birchall won two Sidecar TTs, while the two remaining solo races were taken by Michael Rutter and Bruce Anstey.
23-times TT winner John McGuinness was a major absentee due to career-threatening injuries suffered at the North West 200 a few weeks prior.
Guy Martin made a high-profile return to the event, but suffered a high speed crash in the Superbike TT, and withdrew from the Senior TT. He took second place in the TT Zero, his only race-finish of the week.
The event was marred by the deaths of 3 competitors: Davey Lambert, Jochem van den Hoek, and Alan Bonner.
