Papadakos was comfortably in position until he totally blew it in the last race 

Big scandal now because they didn't have to do the last race, they already had enough races for the results to be valid and our federation either didn't know or deliberately chose to do another race and then we lost the quota place after Papadakos got 37th and the Slovenian guy 8th to move ahead of Papadakos by 4 points...

 

The women had less races than the men for example, and many people complained to our federation that it should've been stopped.

 

Aimilios Papathanasiou, who represented us 5 times at the Olympics, was the commentator on the live stream and even he was saying it that there shouldn't be another race...

 

Just stupidity from our sailing federation. Hopefully Papadakos can qualify at the last chance regatta. He did well here and at the World Championships so he is definitely one of the favourites for a quota...
