GC32 Lagos Cup 1 - Day 1: Black Star level with Red Bull on points by GC32 Racing Tour 2 Jul 02:09 BST 30 June - 4 July 2021
Four challenging races on day one of the GC32 Lagos Cup 1 brought sailors back to the marina with happy, smiling faces. OK, so a lack of wind on the Algarve coast meant racing was pushed back by a few hours. But what s a few hours after you ve been waiting 18 long months for racing to resume!
Christian Zuerrer s Black Star Sailing Team have been putting in the training while racing has been off the agenda, and it s clearly been time well spent with the Swiss crew sitting on equal points with second-placed Red Bull Sailing Team from Austria. We re very happy to be back racing after 18 months, a good feeling to be back on the water against all the guys, said Zuerrer. Today was a little bit of a rollercoaster, but on average we are happy with our performance. And so they should, with respectably consistent scores of 2-4-2-3.
