EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from BikeSport TT Race Pics, we are transported back to the exhilarating race of the decade in 1935. The image showcases the legendary Jimmy Guthrie as he fearlessly rounds Parliament Square in Ramsey during the Senior TT. With a commanding lead of 26 seconds over his rival Stanley Woods on a Guzzi, Guthrie's victory seemed imminent as he entered the last lap. However, an unexpected turn of events unfolded when Norton mistakenly believed that Woods would stop for fuel. In anticipation, Guthrie's mechanics prepared the pit for him. But fate had other plans. Woods defied expectations and went straight through without refueling, narrowly pipping Guthrie to claim victory by a mere four seconds. This dramatic twist added an extra layer of intensity to an already thrilling race. The photograph captures the raw energy and determination etched on Guthrie's face as he navigates through Parliament Square with unparalleled skill and precision. It serves as a timeless reminder of one man's unwavering pursuit of greatness amidst fierce competition. This remarkable snapshot is not just about racing; it encapsulates history in motion - showcasing both triumphs and heartbreaks that have shaped motorsport legends like Jimmy Guthrie forevermore.
