ArInA-pAn Posted March 2, 2021 Posted March 2, 2021 Penultimate round for the Andalusian Week played this Sunday under easterly winds of 24 knots of medium intensity with gusts of 28, conditions with which one more day the quality of the applicants has been put to the test, for whom the difficult thing today was to control the material applying more effort than tactics during the tours. Impressive regattas between the boards with Foil, whose youth fleet like the 420 stayed on land, while the rest of the boards disputed four races, the ILCA three and the Finns two more. With one day to go, there are still things to do to finish closing the different podiums for which the favorites are fighting until exhaustion. Today's was a day in which the hosts have been able to show off their control in the conditions they are used to. Without detracting from the previous ones, the four new victories today for Pilar Lamadrid should be worth double, due to the conditions and also because after three very hard days the windsurfer from CN Puerto Sherry has not yielded a meter to fatigue in a championship that has already more than earned. Lamadrid's impressive performance is close to the title very well, one step away from getting his third overall Foil trophy in just six months. She is followed by the Hungarian Sara Cholnoky and the British Alice Read separated by three points that give them room to compete for silver and bronze. Among the iQFoil senior men's fleet, the Dutch Huig-Jan Tak discards an off-line in the first test and wins the other three to reach the absolute victory very safely, followed by more than twenty points by the German Sebastian Koerdel and also him Dutchman Luc Schmitz again in third place after his best day. Among the Spanish, Fernando Lamadrid (CN Puerto Sherry) maintains sixth place after a day in which he has faced the conditions with the ways of a champion. It is a pity that he is out of line that he has had to discard with the discard, preventing him from climbing any rung in the general classification. Fernando Martínez del Cerro (CAND Chipiona) also maintains eighth place, with a day in which he has shone as always among the best in the fleet. Good day for Pablo Guitian in the Finn class, where the CN Elcano athlete grew with the wind and after adding a ninth and a second and with the possibility of finally discarding the off-line that dragged from the opening day, he gets two points from the winners box. The outcome will be impressive in this class, where the Croatian Bugarin and the Hungarian Berecz will play the title at one point now in favor of the former. Both open a gap with the third classified, the Croatian Vujasinovic, forced to mark the Cadiz if he wants to keep the podium until the end. Nothing shakes the leadership of Portuguese Eduardo Marques in the ILCA 7 class, where the Portuguese scores two new goals and caresses a title that only a debacle can snatch from him. The changes come from behind, with a coup from the Coruña Roberto Bermúdez de Castro who today has shown his race to climb to second place, resolving on his side the tie on points with the Tenerife sailor Leopoldo Christian Barreto. Both will play tomorrow the absolute runner-up and the Under 21 championship to which the Portuguese André Ganadeiro also opts, fourth with six more points.
