- The 2018 Isle of Man TT Races was one of the greatest ever. Two weeks of glorious weather was accompanied by close, exhilarating racing as lap and race records tumbled in every class. However, the best was saved until last with a Senior Race that is arguably one of, if not the best race ever witnessed around the TT Mountain Course.
Dean Harrison and Peter Hickman had both been forced to retire from the opening Superbike Race, the former whilst leading and after setting the first ever lap at an average speed in excess of 134mph. The pair had subsequently taken a race win each - Harrison in the second Supersport Race whilst Hickman won a record-breaking Superstock encounter with his own 134mph+ lap.
The scene was set for the duo to have a battle royale and Harrison tore out the blocks the quickest, although he only led Hickman by a slender 1.4 seconds at the end of the first lap. A pattern soon emerged, Harrison consistently stretching his lead in sectors one and two from the Grandstand to Ballaugh and Hickman clawing back the deficit thereafter - particularly from Ramsey, over the Mountain and back to the Grandstand.
Amazingly, after the second pit stop the gap between the two was still only 1.4 seconds, although it continued to ebb and flow at each timing point. At Ballaugh on the sixth and final lap, Harrison had increased his advantage to 5.7 seconds but from that moment on, Hickman began to reduce the gap.
It wasn’t until the Bungalow, with over 218-miles of the 226-mile race completed, that Hickman grabbed the lead for the first time. Ahead on the road, Harrison flashed across the line first with a new outright lap record of 134.918mph, but Hickman bettered that with a sensational 135.452mph to win by just two seconds!

Hickman is an absolute unit of a rider.
This is just the best bike content literally ever produced.
This will go down in history as one of the best Senior TT races ever.... Best sport in the world
26:04 is one of the most amazing and terrifying pieces of bike control I’ve ever seen
@@forddriver8827 how many corners have you slid at 200mph pal?
@@forddriver8827 Sliding both wheels of a bike with contact patches the size of a credit card at 180mph+ round a corner on public roads is “Just another corner”? Yeah, whatever mate. Stick to driving Fords because you know jackshit about riding motorbikes.
@@TeznaGFX Stay on topic Mr Defensive. Just another corner for the riders.
@@forddriver8827 delete your comment lul get rekt
Best TT race of history, Harrison and Hickman in a titanic battle till the checkered flag, smashing lap records and even legendary riders like MD, first 135 mph lap ever made by Peter... just mesmerizing and fascinating, you being a fan of these two or not. TT has a lot of historic and awesome races, but this one? Simply unmatchable.
Joey Dunlop & John McGuiness are the best riders of the last 30 years. Hickman & Harrison are decades away from 'the best in history' as you put it.
@@forddriver8827 read it again dude. I said best RACE of history. Never said that Harrison and Hickman are the best riders ever.
Check out the 1992 ‘senior’, of formula 1 as it was called back then.
Hislop vs Fogarty.
@@JPWest020 Actually Formula 1 TT is the current Superbike TT.
@@IgorFonseca244
Yes - but it’s now referred to mostly as the Senior
At the time it was actually Formula One
Whatever: go see the ‘92 race;-)
Best ever , long videos like this is GOLD.
True man:)) I am about to watch it right now🤣

Ive only ever left Australia once for an overseas trip.....to the 2018 IoM TT....it was Awesome 😀
How much did it cost you mate? I’m from aus too, I want to go do a few hot laps of Nordschleife too.🇦🇺
@@gwmechanical7402 went with an organised tour from Sportsnet, bloody well sorted but cost around $8k
Worth every cent.

Thank you @TT Races Official. I'm a mad fan of TT.
Modern Classic but in the future 20 to 30 years from now this battle between Hickman and Harrison in 2018 will be known as Legendary

Harrison’s Bike sounds so beautiful a lot of room on that throttle!
Hats off to these guys. I would be scared to play / ride a bike in a video game at this speed.

They have the TT Isle Of Man 2 out now on PC and consoles and it’s actually pretty good. Hard as hell though. 😂
Melhor corrida do mundo😁
👍👍👍👍👍
오마이 갓!
Bikers always look so cool when they leaning into a corner and u see sparks flying
So Good brother 😘👍🏻✌🏻
Absolutely itching to see what the 2 year hiatus has done, will some benifit more than others? Will some fall back right into where they left off or take a more cautious approach over commitment, TT 2022 is gonna be one for the ages that's for sure
This is my dream 🥰🥰
To have an opportunity to take pics on this high speed event
Hoping to get a chance
Love from India😍😘 🇮🇳
Play 08:53 to 08:54 at 0.5x speed. Some deer crossed the street ahead of Michael Dunlop. This race is crazy.
Edit: looks like a bird actually
riders who do this have screws loose in there brain absolutely insane the amount of island knowledge of the track and skill involved.
Holy shit that was epic
I can’t believe that the tires can control the grips on the road with that thunder speed.
These guys drive like Jason, Freddy & Michael Myers is chasing them!!!
Always worrying seeing potential oil on track (Hilliers blow up) after what happened to David Jefferies in 2003
As crazy skilled as all the riders are, loss of traction takes it out of their hands.
I've always wondered what the times would be if they run a reverse track
TT behind every races ..there are lifestrokes and breath of death everytime .. That's unreal sports in the world /././
Dean is a good jockey and a top lad to represent good old yorkshire go on Deano lite it up
I say one thing and one thing only
These riders,
All of em need the respect of the whole gucking planet
These are riders that motogp drivers look up to
These are the riders I would literally pay anything to go on a (chill) ride with
Every single one of em at es hero’s of sport
Imagine you got a Pyramid with moto gp on top,
The sun shining on it are the tt drivers
Who knows what could be achieved if Harrison and Hickman were the only riders racing.
135 miles per hour- mind boggling.
25:12 one of the best scenes
I'm from the Isle of man and know what these guys @gals put on the line but I would have had 2 stop to make sure the rider was OK balls my race but!!!!!!! And it looks like they touched greetings from Douglas
Amazing race! Looking forward to the TT return in 2022
Man TT
I would like to watch the competition of each year. Let you write another script
a very risky race, the riders are very brave.....
мечта которая никогда не сбудется по учавствовать в этих гонках (((
Wow
Hicky sixty 🔥
14:24 ❤️🙏🙌
Dean Harrison 2024 on a honda is going to be fast
if you look at the circuit, it is very dangerous, very challenging for adrenaline
I wonted dean kawasaki won so badly!
Danger 🙆♂️
Super,Labombastic,Fantastic, Školastic!!!!!!👍👌🤝🤘👏👐😍🏍️💓🧠😇🙏🐬
He is driving to the future.
Hicky hanging it all out @26:03
The guys getting passed are on the edge . It basically comes down to how much your willing to risk . Or don't realise how much your risking because your confidence overides your fear mechanism. Either way these guys are gladiators .
very noice .
Great race !! Weird question but does anyone know If the iomtt shop legit ?
LP .goma de repuesto. 04:-)
Brilliant racing just a tad too many ads.
Awesome Speed....but i think the Young Guns are allways over the Limit....this Speed is incredible...and i Hope so , it,s Not come a Big Crash
Why havent these videos hit millions of views??
Because the world has always been moving towards safe spaces.

Lo9k up speed a few back. Guy martin dialed back. The f
@@jonbunse9609 Err, what was that?
What corner is at 16:00 ?
Does it takes that long time to refuel?
I thought it was some high pressure fuel hoses.
Don´t judge me I know nothing about motorcycle races
Gravity only

If it takes a while for one I trust it takes a while for all. At the end of the day - if such is true - it doesn`t matter.
This race was legendary! I was watching from Crosby jump and the atmosphere was electric
Спасибо за удовольствие наблюдать, за самыми безбашенными байкерами. Я стал байкером на 66 ом году жизни. Побывал в аварии из за своего напарника, который ехал впереди, хромаю уже 2 месяца, но не жалею и не оставлю свой мот, он меня не подвёл.
TT 👈
ONE CRASH DEATH
На сколько хватает колес? В чем смысл таких страшных гонок?
While I see the logic about having an empty stomach while racing here, I would think it’s in case they crash that way surgeons and drs can operate right away. Same reason why if you come across a bike accident you try not to give the victim any water even if they ask for it.
💯😎✌
The pittstop is the biggest inefficiency.
🏍️
Best feeling, accelaring a 300 KLM hr bike, till it blows up on you
Guy Martin owned the f out it. Not a pussy.
Ou maioria
If I hear Steve Plater say, "It's all to play for" one more time I'm going to sell my XZ-10R and buy a Honda Grom.
So where is your Grom? hehe, I'm a Deano fan, as well as a few other riders too!!!!!!
I'll take it off you
