Italian & German F18 Nats 2016 @Arco: Paschalidis & Bianchini Champs
All Images Formula 18 Italia, Full gallery at formula18.it —
Iordanis Paschalidis & Lorenzo Bianchini doninated the 2016 joined Italian & German Nats Championships held at Circolo Vela Arco grabbing 6 bullets over 9 races, sailing the Windrush Edge / 1D Sails.
Second place for Gianni Fantasia & Davide Recalcati(C2/Landenberger/SI Spi) , the Italian crew recovered the vice title coming from 3rd overall after Saturday’s races. Today a dnf in race 8 put risk on them reaching the podium (I’m seeing also they changed mainsail during last day) but they came back in the last race finishing 2nd, which secured them second position overall for the event, two points ahead Elia Mazzucchi & Jacopo Ligsinoli (C2/Goodall Design sails) and Andrea & Mateo Viganó (Hobie Wildcat/Ullman).
Nice mix of design and sails as usual in the F18, and excellent decision for the Italian & German sailors to have a unified Nats.
Tomorrow great pics of the F18 Archipelago Raid 2016 Edition.
