GC32-Catamaran - Racing Tour 2017 - Riva ITA - Day 2

The 10 to 15 kn thermal breeze on Lake Garda was quite instable yesterday, due to the disturbed overall weather situation South of the Alps. Nevertheless, four races were completed.
The first race win in the GC32 Tour 2017 went surprisingly to the newcomer Iker Martinez ESP, two-times 49er Champion. The day ended unfortunately with equipment damage in the last race relegating 'I.M. Racing Movistar' on rank 5 overall. 'Team Engie' with Sébastien Rogues FRA and 'Realteam' with Jerôme Clerc SUI have the joint lead, one point ahead of 'Argo' with Jason Carroll USA. In addition to round-the-mark racing, a speed challenge over one mile is on the daily program. Fastest with a 31,02 kn average was Flavio Marazzi SUI with his international 'Armin Strom Sailing Team'.
