 470  World Championship 2021  Vilamoura POR  Day 4   Nikole Barnes/Lara DallmanWeiss now high favorites for the 470 Olympic selection
Major decisions occurred in the fight for the USA 470 women Tokyo ticket after the two Thursday races, but it ain t over till it s over. Race 8 saw a slight recovery of the distanced Atlantic and Nora Brugman (Shelter Island YC) finishing 8th, while the better placed dueling Carmen and Emma Cowles (Larchmont YC) and Nikole Barnes/Lara Dallman-Weiss (St. Francis YC/New York YC) crossed the line down on 24th and 22nd. But the luck turned in favor of the experienced Nikole and Lara in race 9 with a strong 4th race rank, while the Cowles sisters were penalized with a U-flag disqualification at the start and the Brugmann sisters with a disqualification as well.
