2025 Isle of Man TT, Sidecar Qualifying - Crowe brothers top times, injury for main rival Founds

Ryan and Callum Crowe maintained their grip on proceedings in the Sidecar TT class as qualifying practice for the 2025 Isle of Man TT came to a conclusion on Sunday afternoon.

However, there was disappointment for their anticipated closest rivals Peter Founds and Jevan Walmsley after an accident for the pair led to arm injuries for the former.

The incident came less than 20mins into the session, which was rescheduled in place of the opening Sidecar TT race in a week that has been repeatedly hampered by poor weather conditions.

Founds and Walmsley were reported to have come off at Rhencullen just as rain was beginning to make its presence felt.

"Peter Founds and Jevan Walmsley, sidecar outfit number 2, came off at Rhencullen during lap two of the fifth qualifying session of TT 2025," read an official statement.

"Peter is reported as conscious and talking, with arm injuries. Passenger, is reported as conscious and talking, with no reported injuries.

"Both Peter and Jevan have been taken to Noble's Hospital by AirMed for further assessment."

The incident looks set to put Founds and Walmsley out for this week's two Sidecar TT races, clearing the path further for the Crowe brothers to stamp their mark on a double success to match their wins at the 2024 TT.

The pair ended qualifying practice comfortably clear of their rivals with a speed of 120.202mph, with Founds and Walmsley their closest rivals on 116.638mph.

In third place, Ben Birchall - a 14-time winner of the TT alongside his now-retired brother Tom - continued to acclimatise with his new passenger, Patrick Rosney by ending the week with a best of 115.664mph.

Lee Crawford/Scott Hardie and Lewis Blackstock/Oscar Lawrence rounded out the top five.

The first Sidecar TT race is schedule to take place on Monday alongside the first events of the week for the Superbike and Supersport classes.
