The Noticia, a sailing boat by the Santanderino Pichu Torcida and the Madrileño Luís Martín Cabiedes, culminates a First Phase of the Winter Series Vigo - Trofeo Linde Sogacsa following the brilliant wake of last season's success by conquering the Olympic Circuit.

After a first day on which the sailing boat of the Royal Maritime Club of Santander had not been able to get on to one of the three steps of the podium, the Sunday gave it the ideal wind conditions for the configuration of its J70 and its crew, registering three first and one second in the four sleeves completed by the Committee. Torcida and Cabiedes completed the Phase with 11 points in their existence.

Not far from this score in the general classification was followed by the provisional leader Fermax Sailing Team, of the canaries Gustavo Martínez Dueste and Germán Panei, of the Nautical Club of Jávea, with 15 points, just one less than the Marnatura of José Luís Freire and Luís Bugallo, of the Real Nautical Club of Vigo, which closed the bronze of the podium with 16, consolidating this result with the first quarter of the day.

Fourth was another ship of Viguese nautical, the Enersys, of Alonso, Pérez and Rivas, which placed 19 points on its counter, being fifth the sailing boat of the Maritime of Canido patrolled by Luís Pérez Canal, the April Green, with 24 points.
