La tercera sesión de entrenos cronometrados del Tourist Trophy 2012 ha estado protagonizada, una vez más, por un incansable John McGuinness que ha roto por primera vez en esta edición la barrera de las 130 mph, logrando un crono de 17 minutos y 24.20 segundos a una media de 130,079 mph (209,34 km/h). El piloto del Honda TT Legends ha vuelto a encabezar la tabla de tiempos por tercera jornada consecutiva, en un día más frío que los anteriores y con algunas nubes amenazantes sobre la Isla de Man, que además han dejado una intensa niebla a última hora que ha obligado a cancelar los entrenamientos de Sidecars.
Durante esta tercera sesión hemos podido ver por primera vez a un recuperado Conor Cummins (Tyco Suzuki) subirse de nuevo a su moto de Superbikes después del accidente sufrido en la North West 200. El piloto de Suzuki ha sido 15º con una media de 124,375 mph. En Supersport, sigue el dominio absoluto de William Dunlop y su Honda CBR 600RR del Wilson Craig Racing, que en este tercer día ha marcado un registro de 17 minutos y 56 segundos a 126,184 mph de media.
Antonio Maeso no ha podido mejorar su tiempo del martes en Superbikes y ha sido 37º (19:02,49 - 118,888 mph). En Supertstock tampoco le han ido mejor las cosas, y no ha podido pasar de la 60ª plaza con la KTM RC8R del Maeso-KTM Racing Team (20:10.63 - 112,196 mph). La buena noticia es que el motor de la Kawasaki ER6 con la que competirá en la carrera Superlight no tiene ningún fallo, después de que ayer tuviese que parar la moto en plenos entrenos al estar echando humo.
En este vídeo puedes ver un resumen de cómo le fueron las cosas a Maeso en este tercer día.
