It's totally devastating news.

I'm sorry, I can't think of anything to say.

Lil,

That's awful news for road racing, especially after losing Martin Finnegan at Tandragee. But my heart goes out to the Dunlops. 'bye Robert, you were a gentleman. rip

I checked the FP! results for the LeMans MotoGP this am, then saw this.
Super sad day for a family of fine racers.

Lived just 4 miles from #45 Martin Finnegan and was at Tandragee that faithfull day and now the loss of Robbie Dunlop - a very sad day for road racing. Condolences to the Dunlop family circle

Robert was the winner of our 125 'Stroke Racing Supporters Club' Championship last October

RIP - Martin and Robert

RIP Robert

A very sad day

I had the priviledge of meeting Robert many years ago when I was racing - he was a fine man & will be missed by us all.

This is terrible news, I had the priviledge of meeting both Dunlop brothers when I lived up north in the 90s modest, friendly, Gentlemen both. I also lived in Lusk before I moved to Madrid And knew Martin and all the boys in his supporters club in the Top Shop pub, and indeed did business with him in his Extreme 45 shop, again a gentleman who always had time for others.

MAY THEY REST IN PEACE

Very sad, the Dunlops are a talented, dedicated racing family and didn't need any more tragedy but he and Joey died doing what they love best. Very sad indeed.

What's in the water at that family farm? What a pool of talent.

May God give them peace. What a terrible loss.
