Alanna Maher, Philip McCallen and Lee Johnston pay tribute to the rider that died following an incident during Superbike qualifying at the North West 200 international road race on Thursday morning.

The family of the rider did not wish for him to be named but said they have "given their approval" for the event to continue.

In a revised schedule, the Superbikes are now on circuit for half an hour of final practice and qualifying.

There will no longer be coverage on BBC Radio Ulster.

A rider has died after an incident in Superbike qualifying for the North West 200 international road race in Northern Ireland on Thursday.

The crash happened at Station Corner and a red flag brought the session to a close.

The rider has not been named due to the wishes of his family.

"The session was immediately red flagged and emergency services attended the scene but unfortunately the rider succumbed to his injuries," said North West 200 organisers in a statement.

"The family have given their approval for the event to continue but have requested that the rider not be named at this time.

"Coleraine and District Motor Club, the organisers of the races, offer our sincere condolences to the family and team."

The fatality is the first at the North West 200 since Malachi Mitchell-Thomas was killed in a Supertwins race in 2016, and they are the 20th rider to lose their life in the 97-year history of the event.

Superbike qualifying was the first session of the day and the remaining sessions in the afternoon did not take place.

The qualifying sessions have been moved to Thursday night to replace the planned opening three races, and it has not yet been confirmed by race organisers if Saturday's schedule will contain any additional races on top of the planned six.

There will be no more track action before roads are scheduled to reopen around the Triangle circuit at 15:00.

The livestream coverage will be back on air around 17:00 BST, with roads scheduled to close again at 16:45.

Race Control have announced a further delay of 90 minutes.

The organisers have announced that there will be a further one-hour delay to proceedings.

John McGuinness is hoping to achieve another notable milestone in his decorated motorcycle racing career by chalking up his 100th start at this year's North West 200.

Owing to a miscalculation, the 54-year-old believed he was about to reach the landmark figure at last year's event, but official records show that the Morecambe rider currently sits four short of his century, having competed in 96 races.

The 23-time Isle of Man TT winner will take in the three Superbike races and two Superstock events in 2026 as part of the Honda Racing team.

His CV over the Triangle circuit includes six victories, achieved between 2000 and 2012, and 22 podium finishes, the most recent of which came in the second Superstock race in 2024.

"It was embarrassing when we got it wrong," said McGuinness of the miscalculation around his ton.

"I had a helmet all painted for the occasion and we had to leave it at home on the shelf," he added.

Glenn Irwin says he has been struggling but was second-fastest in the Superbike times.

Nine-time North West 200 winner is now part of the BBC analysts' team after not being allowed to participate in the meeting.

We know the North West 200 riders are good at getting around the circuit.

But can they guess where they are just off the noise of a bike?

Peter Hickman has a go.
