The main favorite to take the Championship, Luis Díaz, who would finish second in the last two editions, was untreatable from the first close of the first manga, taking a more than remarkable distance to the rest of the fleet...

Luis Díaz, new champion of Asturias of Laser Radial. Bruno Şlez- Manjoya was made with the subchampionship, closing the Sergio González podium posts. During the weekend was held in the waters of Gijón Bay, the Laser Radio Asturias Championship, a test organized by the Royal Astur Club of Regatas.

In the opening day the three sleeves were held, on a trapeze tour, with wind from the north-east loose at the beginning that would rise up to 13 knots in the last race, sea with a short wave of half a metre high, on a cloudy day.

The second position in the classification table was very equal to the end, with several candidates to occupy the square. On Saturday, Sergio González would finish second of the general, after a third and two seconds. For its part, Bruno Şlez- Manjoya, third last year, occupied this same square. Alvaro Pérez with a sixth, a fourth and a third would end up with podium possibilities, everything would depend on the results of the Sunday.

On Sunday, meteorology was the great protagonist, on a sunny day the north wind would never rise from the 5.5 knots. After more than an hour of postponement in the water, the exit was given with the minimum wind to start the competition. However, to save the sleeve, the Regatas Committee was forced to shorten the route, in a section, giving the arrival in barlovento.

Once again, Luis Díaz was the best to score the victory and to proclaim himself as the just winner of the Championship. Bruno Şlez- Manjoya finished second after reassembling several positions during the manga, thanks to this result he would end up taking the subchampionship. The third place in the manga and in the dessert in the general would be for Sergio González.
