After the second day of racing and another five races the general classification of the European Championships stage of the European Circuit 2022 has had a change of positions between the Dutch Bilksem and the Italian Vitamina Veloce, the boat skippered by Andrea Lacorte that went from first to third, leaving the leadership to Bliksem.
China One Ningbo retains second place. After 10 races and one day to go, therefore, the cat skippered by Pieter Taselaar is in the lead. On Saturday, in wind conditions ranging from 14 to 18 knots, it achieved two firsts, a second, a third and a fourth. It was also a good day for the Americans of Surge, who took third place on the day, just one point behind the Chinese.
The Garda Trentino will again be the scene of races for the M32 fleet on Sunday for a final, which looks very close for the podium. But international sailing does not stop on the waters of Upper Garda: on Sunday evening the opening ceremony of the Sunfish World Championship, the most numerous boat in the world, will take place at Circolo Vela Torbole.
