Brothers Michael and William Dunlop put in a great show in this exciting conclusion to the Supersport class at the 2014 Isle of Man TT Races.
With two wins already under his belt, Michael was determined to make it a third, going up against Bruce Anstey, Dean Harrison, and his own brother for pole position.
It was apparent early on though, that this was going to be a two-man battle between Anstey and Michael, the pair circulating for most of the race. William remained in third for most, with Harrison closely behind.
Anstey wasn’t going to give up easily, and had the magnets on Michael, their wheels getting closer and closer as the four-lap race began to conclude.
The victorious rider took home his third win of the week, his tenth in total. In great sportsmanship the second-place rider let the winner past the chequered flag first.
Another race sensation was privateer Ivan Lintin, who started the lap in fifth, eventually finishing in seventh.
