Sailing WS World Championships 2018

[phelps 7,675]

disaster for Italy in the Nacra class (and for Tartaglini in the women's RS:X...she just can't cope with the poor wind condition...she absolutely needs a good breeze to pick up...at least Marta Maggetti is still keeping ITA among the Olympic qualifiers)...

on the other side, very good day in the men's RS:X...and, above all, the biggest surprise for us is the current 7th place and the Olympic spot earned by Dubbini & Di Salle in the women's 470...

p.s. they are the first Italian athletes qualified for Tokyo...now their names will stay in the books (and in the trivia questions) forever...

Quite strange reasoning with Finn. They planned to have 3 races today and nothing tomorrow, but at the end they have 2+2 because of today's poor conditions? Weird.

Not the right nations having quota

So Denmark is using the home advantage. Very impressive results for France and New Zealand.

For me this competition is unworthy of the most important qualifying event for the olympics.

Why is it unworthy?

About women's 470,

https://aarhus2018.sailing.org/results

says that  got disqualified in race 7, so  should get the Olympic quota

Interesting to point out how Greece hasn't qualified in women's 470 since 2004 (when they won gold).

[dcro 10,210]

All racing delayed...

[Agger 1,663]

Not much happening (some quizzing happening here )
