Richard Cooper’s 2022 NW200 Supertwin Wins Reinstated :
Richard Cooper crossed the finish line first in both of the 2022 North West 200 Supertwin Races. He was riding the JMC Roofing Kawasaki machine which had been prepared by Ryan Farquhar. A infringement was found following the first race, which related to a bracket on the fairings of the machine. An appeal was immediately lodged and Cooper was allowed to enter the second race under appeal. The result of this infringement was then ruled to be disqualification from both races. The appeal process was already in action, as was the controversy.
The Appeal was finally upheld on 1st November 2023.
A statement from the MCUI(UC) concluded the following :
Full results for each race from Thursday 12th May 2022 (evening racing) and Saturday 14th May 2022 (race day).
A detailed breakdown of the practice, qualifying and race sessions with detailed lap breakdowns and analysis can be found on the Official North West 200 Website.
If you would like to catch up with any of the sessions from Tuesday, Thursday or Saturday they are all available on the iPlayer for a limited time.

The road closure times and race schedule for the 2022 North West 200 have been announced.
Remember road closures will happen at these times sharply – and if you miss them, you miss them. When the road closure happens the road legally becomes a race circuit. You will not have the right to travel on it, or use as usual. So be on time to save any disappointment.
The race times are approximate. Racing is fluid, incidents and delays happen and in road racing are very likely, so don’t base anything on the race times being accurate, but they will give you an approximate idea of how things will ideally run.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR 2022 ROAD CLOSING
The Road Races (Amendment) Act (Northern Ireland) 2014 has now been approved by the Northern Ireland Assembly and received Royal Assent. The changes to the road closing legislation now give the organisers of the International North West 200, in exceptional circumstances, the ability to move a practice or race day, either one day forward or one day back, giving 24 hours notice to the Department for Infrastructure.
Should extreme weather be forecast, the 2022 contingency days could be: Wednesday 11th May and Friday 13th May 2022.
In lieu of using one of the above full contingency days, organisers may also extend the road closing times on Tuesday 10th and Saturday 14th May 2022 as follows:
