British rider Davey Lambert has died after crashing in the Superbike race at the Isle of Man TT event.
The 48-year-old crashed on the third lap of the race at Greeba Castle on Sunday and was treated at the scene before being airlifted to Nobles Hospital.
He was subsequently transferred to Aintree Hospital in Liverpool where he died on Tuesday.
"ACU Events Ltd wishes to pass on their deepest sympathy to his partner Tracey, his family and friends," organisers said in a statement on the race's website.
The TT races around the island off the north-west coast of England between Britain and Ireland have been run since 1907 and ranks among the most dangerous in motorsport.
