Coroner Michael Moyle has warned his report may contain unhappy reading for some, after hearing evidence in a triple inquest this week.

Speaking yesterday as the evidence ended, he said he hoped to deliver verdicts on Wednesday or Thursday.

But after a three-day hearing, he hinted his report may criticise some of those involved in the incident during last year’s Senior TT race.

Spectators Dean Adrian Jacob of Kidderminster and Gregory John Kenzig from Australia died, as well as TT rider Marc Ramsbotham, from Norfolk.

Mr Moyle heard evidence from Manx Motorcycle Club organisers, TT marshals, the Autocycle Union and Director of Highways Bruce Hannay.

At the centre of the case was whether the spectators were in a prohibited area and whether that part of the course had been clearly signed as off-limits.

Mr Moyle described the case as tragic, and offered his condolences to the families of the victims, as well as giving his best wishes to two marshals who were injured in the incident.

But he warned that when he delivers his verdicts next week, some of the parties who gave evidence may not find it happy reading.
