F18 Worlds 2013 @Marina di Grosseto: Day 2 Results
Update: Image by Jasper van Staveren / Sailshoot.com . Sergio Mehl-Nico Aragones.
— I uploaded Results thanks to Silvia Sicouri Here.
Historic Day (if confirmed) for Argentina, 8 teams with 3 performing too well at Grosseto and Sergio Mehl & Nico Aragones have won (provisional) a first race for the Argies. Yesterday they were 3rd and their rudder casting broke, I told them to go forward, that they were lucky not to have 3-4 dnf!
Scoring a bullet today with Booth, Gabart, Heemskerk, Besson and many others it is just too much.
To celebrate Argentina’s Independence Day (today July 9th) nothing better than a Bullet in an F18 World Championship with 184 boats.
Styles-Mason (1st photo left) take the lead, Gabart-Vandame maintain 2nd and Bontemps-Gurvan start their attack to the top at 3rd place. Besson-Lagarrigue 4th but all in a 5,6,7,8 score, quite tight up there , tomorrow two more qualifying races to split Gold & Silver fleets.
Day Highlight Oskar Zeekant racing Mixed style with Sanne van Hek in 5th! Heemskerk-Tentiij excelling with two bullets, but a dsq from yesterday holding them back a little for the moment
Photos from Jasper being sorted. Full Gallery at CSN FB.
Leaders: Styes, Gabart, Bontemps, Besson. More details soon.

I just heard that my great sailing friend and former CEO of Hobiecat Europe has passed. May The endless oceans…
...Report was sent by an F18 Sailor, if you want Hobies reported send your own, we'll publish as usual. Cheers.
Looks like in your report the Hobies are not really present. Suggest to rewrite the article.
Thanks for the great report Wik. Great battle.
If I correctly read the results the overall winner this year is a Hobie16
