North West 200 event organiser Mervyn Whyte explains the decision not to restart Superbike Race 2 after a red flag.
The 2026 North West 200 came to an early end this evening due to a red flag being raised during the final Superbike race when there was an oil spill on the track. Despite early hopes of restarting the race with a three-lap sprint, the clean-up efforts took too long to finish before the roads had to be reopened. Storm Stacey, who led at the end of lap three, was declared the winner of the race, marking his second victory of the day and making him the only two-time winner of the event this year. Other winners included Peter Hickman, Jeremy McWilliams, Michael Dunlop, and Glenn Irwin in various categories at this year’s North West 200.
