The ILCA6, ILCA4 and 420 classes today added two more tests to the final computation... despite applying the discards to the worst result, there was no variation in the classifications, confirming the triumph of the athletes who came out today as provisional leaders

Not even the heat it has made today in the Bay of Las Palmas of GC, has allowed a thermal wind to enter that perhaps would have given more play in the classifications. The committee put everything on its side, holding very patiently the pressure entry to a race field where it did not blow more than 7 knots accompanied by a very uncomfortable wave. They finally managed to carry out two valid tests, setting up a general classification with a total of five tests.

Lithuanian regatist Viktoriya Andrulyte (1st-1st-( 3rd) 2nd-1st) today shared starring with the French Marie Barrue ((2nd) -2nd-2nd-1st-2nd), sharing between the two, the first positions in the ILCA6 class. The discard has allowed him to proclaim himself a winner, with two points on the regular performance of Barrue, the only sportsman who has followed the winner more closely. Further away from the podium, the Swiss Rosina Baudet, who today went out to compete with new possibilities due to the disqualification, last minute yesterday, of Martina Reino for a protest presented by Andrulyte, relegating the grancanaria from the honorary posts. Closing the top five, the Spanish Isabel Hernández (RCNGC) and the Olympic Cristina Pujol (CN Por't Aro), fourth and fifth respectively.

In the ILCA4 class, the RCNGC representatives have a strong success by copying the first four posts in the final classification of the Carnival Regata and the corresponding podium, with Pol Núñez, Jaime Abella and Jorge Sosa. The Canarian Championship of this class, which was held in parallel, also organized by the entity the grancanarian nautical entity by delegation of the Federation of Canary Islands of Vela, has as new winners Pol Núñez and Patricia Caballero (RCNGC) who achieve the title in the categories SUB16 and SUB18 male and female together.

The mixed crew composed of David Santacemu (RCNT) / Ana Bautista (RCNGC) came out to secure their leadership, despite the good performance of the brothers Pablo Tejera / Cristina Tejera (RCNGC), winners of the two tests today but with a disqualified on the first day, has weighed a lot in the time of adding points. Thirdly, the grancanaries Javier Ojeda / Tomás Bello.
