Nacra 17 @Marseille 2019: Day 2 results
All images by Sailing Energy / World Sailing. – Marseille looking amazing on the scenery and the racing action. Last Word Cup Series event for 2019 , not many boats in the different classes but a good top ten in talents in the Nacra 17. Bissaro-Frascari keep putting pressure to the Italian Sailing Fed for the team who will represent them at Tokyo. Vitto & Maelle are leading after 5 races ahead of Besson-Riou. Billy & Marie won first two races and seem to have recovered memory on how to perform! Great to see them up there in the scores and we hope them to have their deserved second chance after the injury Billy had previous Rio 2016 Olympics.
