At the London 2012 Olympic Sailing Competition, a lack of wind resulted in the postponement of the 470 men’s medal race with Mathew Belcher and Malcolm Page now set to race for gold on Friday.
Also in action will be Elise Rechichi and Belinda Stowell who head into the 470 women’s medal race sixth overall and with a glimmer of hope of bringing home a bronze medal. Australia’s Women’s Match Racing crew will then hit the water for the semifinal hit out against Finland, with Olivia Price, Nina Curtis and Lucinda Whitty racing for a place in Saturday’s final.
