The Governor of Mendoza joined the Race Officer, Antonio Lamadrid, on the starting boat for the last race of the 2010 Worlds on Lake Potrerillos. He was then treated to a thrilling, and fitting, finale to this years championship. The wind built throughout the race, and once again delivered a challenging spectacle.
Despite a fall Ross Williams (GBR83) had the bit between this teeth and his second place, on the heels of Casper Bouman (NED52), ensured he shared the podium with new world champion Antoine Albeau (FRA192) and runner up Paulo Dos Reis (BRA3333). Marta Hlavaty (POL 111) rounded off her championship with another convincing win .
