In 2013, John McGuinness, who had yet to take a win that year, made his move in the second lap, edging ahead of Dunlop by just five hundredths of a second. It was tight all the way to the end, with the thousands of spectators lining the course treated to an on-track duel between Dunlop and McGuinness. McGuinness took home his 20th TT win, by just 10.1 seconds. Rewatch every race since 1995, for free with TT Rewind – only on TT 🔗 ttplus.iomttraces.com/tt-rewind-john-mcguinness-30-years #isleofma
