Irish star rider Ryan Farquhar says he is broadly in favour of the proposed changes to the Manx Grand Prix from 2013.
Ryan has raced classic bikes with great success at recent meetings as well as supporting other riders on modern machinery.
He believes the MGP is no longer the best place for potential newcomers to the T.T. as the difference in speed between the two events is wider than it has ever been.
Farquhar says he has always been a fan of the Manx Grand Prix but change will be good for road racing in general if all the details of the new schedule are worked out correctly.
