Follow the latest from the final race at the 2018 Isle of Man TT

Michael Dunlop dedicates 16th win in Isle of Man TT to late teammate Dan Kneen, who was killed during race practice

The final race of the 2018 Isle of Man TT takes place on Friday in the form of the Senior TT to cap what has already been a record-breaking week.

The likes of Michael Dunlop, Dean Harrison and Peter Hickman will duke it out on the roads of the Isle of Man at speeds peaking at 200mph in what remains one of the most dangerous races in the world.

Friday afternoon sees the blue ribbon event in the form of the Senior TT – the one they all want to win – and after triumphing in last year’s event, Dunlop is looking to land win No 19 that would put him within four victories of John McGuinness and seven of overall leading race winner Joey Dunlop. But even though he took the spoils in the Superbike TT last Saturday – ridden on the same bikes as today’s event – Harrison holds the outright lap record and took victory in the second Supersport race on Wednesday, while Hickman will also be a threat after winning the Superstock race on Monday.

Lap 6: Hickman is flying and leads by 0.834s on the way down the mountain. Remember, they set off 50 seconds apart, so Harrison will have a horrible wait to see who wins it once he's crossed the line...

Incredible, absolutely incredible from Hickman. Harrison couldn't have done much more, as he actually broke the lap record with a 134.456mph lap, but Hickman produced an astonishing 135.452mph lap record to land his second win of the week.

That's all from our coverage of the Isle of Man Senior TT, and indeed of the entire event. The thrilling finale caps what has been a record-breaking fortnight, and after winning both the Superstock and Senior TT, Peter Hickman has well and truly announced himself on the fastest stage.

It's Michael Dunlop who claims the Joey Dunlop Trophy after wins in the Superbike, Supersport and Lightweight races, while Dean Harrison takes home the Supersport Race Two spoils and Michael Rutter the TT Zero lap record. In the Sidecars races, there was no stopping the Birchall brothers as Ben and Tom secured their second consecutive double.

Thanks for joining us and see you again next year.
