In this exclusive interview clip, Michael Dunlop tells Peter Duke about how his father and Isle of Man TT legend Robert Dunlop and how he helped him learn the course and machinery.
At just twenty-seven years old, Dunlop has already made TT history, being the first rider to lap the 33¾ mile circuit in under 17 minutes (with a 133.962mph average speed lap) and with 13 wins is placed fifth in the all-time standings.
Dunlop is set to race the all-new GSX-R1000 in 2017, the 13-time Isle of Man TT winner signing for the new-look Bennetts Suzuki team for the forthcoming season.
The full interview will be available to watch on Friday 19th May 2017 as we build up to the TT 2017 festival!

Well the one who really is a legend is Carl Fogarty. 92 He was racing for the WSBK championship and did a 18.18 with 750cc Yahama. Who's now outdated. But he also had 8 Moto gp appearances. Ant Moto GP on the lvl where we are now, the lvl back then is nothing to compare now. Look for instance at Josh Brooks a former WSS WSBK racer. How he dit his 2 appearance at IOM
Legendary family

Joey dunlop stil mi favorite legend
He will be the unassailable TT legend by the time he's done. He's got another 20 competitive years left and look at his record already.
Michael you are the chosen one to fulfill your family’s legacy..stay safe and my prayers with uncle Joey, dad, and brother William..

It's quite possible that Michael Dunlop has become as indecipherable as Guy Martin.

Peter Williams nah, Guy Martin talks too quickly. Maybe if Michael spoke as quick then he'd be on a level with Guy!!

It wasn't him who died it was his bother William, he died at sams tunnel.
MD looks huge now so for him to man handle the beast on any Road Racing Circuit he should do even better 2018. I like how he seems to have his own style he is like a bull dog riding a beach ball. If MD stays in this sport he will pass his uncle Joey and the consistent McPint..

Out of the respect for my blood I would not break the record. IN MY BOOK HE WAS AND IS DAH BEST. LOOK 👀 AT HIS RECORD. I WOULD RETIRE IMMEDIATELY. MY BEST.
c'mon Michael dunlop get all the cups but come home safe.you will punish them all on any dirty animal.cus you are a unique road racer.the best md the best
The TT is making this family less and less, walk away from it while you can, the odds aren’t in ur favour..uve had a good run and should now focus on a career and family, even the legends know when to stop, riding like u do takes big balls..but if u comes off then why about the missus and kids..just another statistic..already a legend so hang up the boots..and maybe go into cars..the better way of travelling..u know 4 wheels always better than 2 and safer, comfier, warmer, better looking and quickest round bends;)
