La clasificación en 49er, 49er FX y Nacra 17 se suma a las ya logradas en 470 y RS:X, ambas en masculino y femenino

The classification in 49er, 49er FX and Nacra 17 is in addition to those already achieved in 470 and RS: X, both in male and female

The final infarction in the World Championship of 49er, 49er FX and Nacra 17, which is with the success of the Spanish team that, with a 4th of Botín / López Marra in 49er, 5th of Pacheco and Trittel in Nacra 17 and 14th of Patricia Suárez and Nicole van der Velden in 49er FX, add 3 new Olympic squares for Spain to the four already obtained in 470 and RS: X both male and female.

But the team's hard training gave its fruit and after two stressful tests to close the final series, Diego Botín and Iago López Marra (QuironSalud) in 49er (with 4th and 16th as final partial) and Tara Pacheco and Florian Trittel in Nacra 17 (with 4th and 8th) entered the Medal Race to defend a 4th and 8th in general respectively.

And they defended him to the end, closing the world with a 1st of Botín / López Marra in 49er in the Medal, with him they kept the fourth place of the general, and a 2nd of Suárez / Trittel that made them ascend to the 5th of the general.

In the frenzy classification of 49er FX, the two races of the day did not give Patricia Suárez and Nicole van der Velden options to climb the two posts that removed them yesterday from the positions of Medal Race, and a 12º -21st led them to the 14th of the world's general, but not outside the country classification in the search for Olympic square.

Impressive performance by the crew of Tara Pacheco and Florian Trittel in this world, who have not only won a fifth place in the championship but have also placed Spain as the first country in the country classification for Tokyo 2020.

Botín y López Marra a las puertas del podio en 49er... Pacheco y Trittel, Nacra 17, anotan un nuevo primero en sus parciales

Botín and López Marra at the podium doors in 49er... Pacheco and Trittel, Nacra 17, score a new first on their partials

The Auckland World Championship is about to be caramel and in all three classes there is still a fierce struggle to climb in a classification, which will seal the Olympic passport for a handful of countries: five in Nacra 17, four in 49er and six in 49er FX.

In this battle, Spain continues to maintain its possibilities after the excellent work of all the participating crews, the Nacra 17 being the most advanced class, in which the canaria Tara Pacheco and Florian Trittel are located in the first place of the countries fighting for the Olympic square, in the 9th place of the general. France, Germany, the United States and Norway are following you in the fight at 10, 13, 14, 15 and 21, respectively, on a 75-point fork.

In 49er, with four places in liza, Spain is also at the top of the list of countries looking for Olympic square, with the cantabre Diego Botín and the Galician Iago López Marra in the fourth place of the world general. Austria, the Netherlands and Poland are the following countries classified within the Olympic margin, in posts 6, 8 and 10 respectively, with 23 points among them.

The class that presents the most complications for the Spanish team is the 49th FX, with six places in play, where the Galician Patricia Suárez and Nicole van der Velden, at 12, have ahead of Germany, Argentina, the United States and Poland, and behind Singapore, the latter with a single point of difference.

If there is a class where everything is in a fist and to decide is certainly that of the 49th FX women, with 10 countries - among the top 20 countries - fighting tomorrow for only 6 places to go to Tokyo 2020.

In the general classification of the day of 49er FX Patricia Suarez and Nicole Van der Velden they move to the 12th place - scoring 13-11-16- and the Munté sisters (BMW Oliva Motor) are 24 - with a 19-25-20-.

Tara Pacheco and Florian Trittel have again marked a first place in their partials on an unequal day in results in Nacra 17: 21-1-18, accusing the variable conditions of the Gulf of Hauraki. These partials bring them down from the fifth post yesterday to the ninth, tied to points with the French crew of Delapierre and Audinet in tenth place.

Tension and hard struggle between the 49er, where the positions dances continue in the top ten of the general, in which Diego Botín and Iago López Marra have managed to scratch one more place on the table, standing at the doors of the podium, six points from the British Fletcher-Scott and Bithell, after scoring a 3-18-11.

El 49er FX al rojo vivo con 11 tripulaciones luchando por plaza olímpica entre las primeras 20 clasificadas

The 49th live red FX with 11 crews fighting for Olympic square among the first 20 classified

Triving first day of the final series with three races disputed for each class and wind conditions strengthening in the Gulf of Hauraki, to which the Spanish crews are demonstrating good control of the circumstances and full concentration in the main goal of this world: to classify Spain for the Tokyo Games.

In class 49er FX, where only the Brazilian crew Gral / Kunce keeps their position in front of the table, while after them, up to 20 crews are in a tight confrontation with minimal score differences and representatives of 11 countries looking for the Olympic Square.

Something clearer seems to be the case in 49er, where it is Botín and López Marra who lead the Olympic fight group, although their persecutors are close and at a few points.

Tara Pacheco and Florian Trittel are the only ones who manage to increase their mattresses over the next country in liza... so, the Spanish pre-Olympic team is still in the fight and with good prospects, but without losing sight of the enemy and with the awareness that there are still regats in which the minimum error can give to the stray with the walk.

Diego Botin and Iago Marra. 49er

Iker Martínez and Olga Maslivets (Movistar) is the best ranked team with a 9th among the Nacra 17, and Patricia Suárez and Nicole van der Velden, who have joined a first, are also ranked 13 among the girls of the 49th FX. Disgust for Diego Botín and Iago López (Quiro) in 49er who suffer a disqualification in the fifth race.

After a blank day for overwind, Iker Martínez and Olga Maslivets premiered in the world with a ninth place in the top 10 of the joint table of the different groups in which the fleet is divided, accumulating a 5-4-5 as best partial and dismissing the 15 of the first test of the day.

Tara Pacheco and Florian Trittel have also developed a good contact with the world, adding partial top 10 in all the contested sleeves: 8-7-8-10, to close this first day at the 18.

The classification begins to take shape in 49er after computing six sleeves of the classification phase, with the usual crews taking positions at the front of the table.

Despite a good progression in their results, Diego Botín and Iago López have seen as a second place in the fifth race became a disqualified following the protest of the Irish team of Seaton and Guilfoyle for a babor@-@ starboard that leads them to the 30-point of the table. With an off-line on the last test of the day, the Alonso brothers (El Gaitero) maintain position 31 of the general.

The Galician Patricia Suarez and her partner Nicole Van der Velden have finished the day in 13th position, as best Spanish, and with some partials in which she has highlighted an excellent and worked first place in the second manga of the day, made by which the tandem was happy but cautious.

Tamara Echegoyen and Paula Barceló have had one of lime and one of sand, with good partials of 8 and 2 but they have a 22 and 26, and they are located in 28th position.

The Munté sisters, with an excellent second position in the second test of the day, are 39º in the general classification.

With five world days to be held, the seven crews of the Spanish pre-Olympic team have before them one more day of qualifying races, with a planned program of 9 tests of which three in 49er and five in 49er FX and Nacra 17 would not be held, and a situation of the Spanish crews on the table that presupposes the pass to the final series in all classes.

03 / 12 / 2019: With winds of 30 knots in New Zealand only the 49er the World

Diego Botin y Iago Marra. 49er

Diego Botin and Iago Marra. 49er

Complicated first day of testing in the 49er World Championship, 49erFX and Nacra 17 due to the severe weather conditions that have hit Auckland, with the passage of a powerful front that has left winds of more than 30 knots and much rain in the race fields.

With almost four hours behind schedule, the 88 registered in class 49er, divided into three groups, have been made to water to dispute two tests that have been extremely complicated.

Keeping in the top 15 of their respective groups, Diego Botín and Iago López Marra (QuironSalud) have sailed from less to more by scoring a 15 and 3 partial, with 18 points that place them in the 23rd position once the results of the three groups have been added. The Alonso (El Gaitero) brothers end the day with a 12th and a 10th (22 points) at the 31st.

With a first classification in which the favorites are still very scattered, the Germans Erik Heil and Thomas Ploessel lead the provisional podium with 3 points (2-1) followed by the French Kévin Fisher and Jauvin Yann with 5 points (1-4) and the Dutch Bart Lambriex and Pim van Vugt with 7 points (3-4).
