The next quotes from the Quironsalud Team will be the Olympic Games Test event in Enoshima (Japan) in August and finally the World Championship in New Zealand in November, where Spain plays the Olympic Square

The Diego Botín and Iago López Marra Quironsalud Team has won the fourth place in the Kiel Week of 49er, which has been held in Kiel, after a day of Medal Race in which they left in the sixth square and have managed to rise to the fourth position of the general, overcoming among others the Olympic champions Peter Burling and Blair Tuke who have finished fifth.

The championship started regular for the Cantabro-Gallegos, which were in the 36th position due to several breakages. The second day began to go back with 7 + 5 + 5 partials that were up to position 22. The turning point reached the third day that with 5 + 1 + 2 they went up to the sixth square of the gold group. The last day of the finals served to consolidate the sixth square with an eighth that took them to the Medal Race. The 13-kt Wind Medal was very good for the interests of Botín and López Marra that marked a third with double value, achieving the fourth final square.

The victory has been for the Kiwis Dunning - Gunn, second the Poles Przybytek - Kolodzinski and third the British Peters - Sterritt. This fourth post is added to the silver medal this year in Princess Sofia, the bronze in the European and the Races Medal of Genoa and Miami. Final classification, with 82 participants:
