The TT chief marshal has resigned, over the 2007 centenary event, in which three people were killed.
Roger Hurst, chairman of the TT Marshals' Association for 15 years, said he had no option but to resign.
Rider Marc Ramsbotham, 34, of Wymondham, Norfolk, died in a crash at the 26th milestone on the final day of the races in June.
Spectators Dean Jacob, 33, of Kidderminster, and Gregory Kenzig, 52, from Australia, were also killed.
I regret that I am forced to withdraw my support to the new race organisers but wish them all the best for TT 2008 and beyond.
In his summing up after the inquest, Mr Moyle referred to a catalogue of disasters involving marshals, the Manx Motorcycle Club and the Department of Transport.
Without referring to specific individuals, he described the positions of some of the key people involved as "untenable".
