Star - Christmas Race - Nizza FRA - Day 1

The traditional Starboat Christmas Race 2015 in Nizza FRA, the first of four events of the European Winter Series at the Côte d'Azur, began yesterday with three races. The moderate temperatures also over the land prevented the usual winter morning thermal breeze to build up, but nevertheless, two races were completed in a 10 kn wind. Another race was added in the afternoon with an up to 12 kn seabreeze.
As expected, the professionals are on the top ranks with Diego Negri/Sergio Lambertenghi ITA 1st ahead of Xavier Rohart/Stéphane Pontre FRA and Jean-Baptiste Bernaz FRA/Frithjof Kleeen GER. The results, the daily news, the GPS tracking of the first 3 races and the video of the day taken by a drone.
GPS-live-tracking will again be available as from 8 hrs UTC this morning.
