Manx Grand Prix rider in ‘serious condition’ after crash at Joey’s bend

Garry Broughton's serious condition following his crash during the Manx Grand Prix qualifying might influence betting outcomes, especially for upcoming races. Punters may reconsider betting on contested events involving participant safety and track conditions.

Tuesday night's qualifying was stopped by a red flag. Leicester’s Garry Broughton is in a serious condition after a crash in Tuesday evening’s qualifying for the Manx Grand Prix.

The red flag went out shortly after 8pm after an incident at Joey’s on Mountain section of the course, during the Lightweight/Supertwin qualifying session. Broughton was airlifted to Noble’s Hospital on the island but has since been transferred to Aintree Hospital in Liverpool.

“Garry Broughton, bike number 35 in the Supertwin/Junior class, came off at Joey’s during the third Qualifying Session of the 2025 Manx Grand Prix,” reads a statement from the Manx Grand Prix.

“He was taken via Airmed to Noble’s Hospital for further assessment. At the time of issue, Garry has been transferred to Aintree. His condition is reported as serious and he continues to be assessed and receive treatment for injuries sustained. Further condition updates will be issued in due course.”

Joey’s is the 26th racing marker on the famous course and is named after roadracing legend Joey Dunlop, who won 26 times at the Isle of Man TT. Broughton’s crash brought out the red flags for the second day in succession at the Manx Grand Prix after Bangor rider Andy McAllister sustained arm injuries in a crash on Monday evening. ```
