The Danish crew who were left out of the 2016 Olympics on their team mates blocking them a better score continue to perform in each Nacra 17 regatta. Now with a secure spot for Tokyo, Lin Cenholt & Christian Lubeck can relax and “cruise” on, at Santander Test Event held this week they won by 16pts.
ISAF change the fleet matchrace rule after the Danish Team case, now you can only match race another team if you are aiming for a better results yourself on the race and not for preventing the other to do better.
