With the fastest-ever race speed, Steve Hislop (Honda) led the 1991 Isle of Man TT Senior race from start to finish and notched up his second hat trick of wins, equalling the record of Mike Hailwood and Joey Dunlop. It brought 'Hizzy's' tally of wins to eight at the TT races.
His opening lap of 121.09mph put him 99.8 seconds in front of Joey Dunlop, who had taken over Carl Fogarty's RVF Honda. Trevor Nation had the Norton in third place.
Steve increased his lead over Joey at the end of lap two to 18.8 seconds, and the only change to the leader board was that Morrison took third place from Nation. The difference between the leaders at the end of lap three was 29 seconds with Morrison still holding third place.
By the time lap four had been completed the gap between Hislop and Dunlop was 49.8 seconds. The top two were separated by one minute four seconds at the end of lap five. The question on the final circuit was could Hislop catch his teammate on the road?
He did, taking victory as they crossed the line side by side by two minutes 20 seconds. Phillip McCallen moved up to third place to make it a Honda one-two-three. Brian Morrison, after wiring up a loose exhaust, took fourth, followed by Nick Jefferies and Bob Jackson.
