The Spanish take their first victory
Document Actions
El Desafio is still in the running. Karol Jablonski takes his revenge, in handing a penalty to Team New Zealand at the start. The Spanish boat perfectly controls the race for the rest of the day and offers Valencia a first convincing and promising victory, (1 minute and 14 seconds lead). In the other semi-final, James Spithill again won the start against Chris Dickson and was successful today in keeping their lead all the way to the finish line, crossing the line 31 seconds ahead. Luna Rossa retakes the points lead, two victories to one.
