Melges 32 European Championship - Robertissima remains out front

by International Melges 32 Class Association on 20 Jul 2014 With just one more day of racing scheduled in Riva Del Garda at the 2014 Melges 32 European Championship, Roberto Tomasini Grinover's Robertissima remains in first place overall, extending his lead by two more points. Enthralled in a seriously hot battle seated second and third respectively is Richard Goransson's Helly Hansen Inga From Sweden and Valentin Zavadnikov's Synergy GT, tied with 27 points each.

Three more races were conducted today with Tomasini Grinover very much holding his own. Goransson's first-race-of-the-day win moved him up a notch to now sit second overall, sliding Zavadnikov to third on countback.

Japan's Naofumi Kamei on Mamma Aiuto! had a smashing good day nailing two bullets in Race 8 and nine moving him up from fifth overall to fourth. Alessandro Rombelli on Azimut by STIG celebrated a decent day moving him up to round out the top five.

One final race is scheduled for Sunday, the final day of racing - where the next Melges 32 European Champion will be crowned!
