Final Results:
On Aug. 15 and 17 racing was abandoned due to lack of wind. On August 18th, the Stars waited for racing conditions until late in the day and only sailed one race. Flavio Marazzi and Christoph Christen (SUI) with a boat designed just for these conditions, have now won two of the three races. While they were ahead of Hamish Pepper and Carl Williams (NZL) by less than a minute, there was a large gap between these two and the next three boats. Marazzi/Christen now have a one point lead over Rohart/Rambeau.
On Sunday, Aug. 19th, sailing did not happen due to very light wind. Three races had been planned, in an effort to make up for lost sailing days.
On Monday, Aug. 20th, sailing waa again postponed until late in the afternoon due to lack of wind, but one race was then completed, won by Pepper/Williams who took over 1st place.
Tuesday, August 21, two races were completed putting Rohart/Rambeau into first place with a three way tie for second among Marazzi/Christen, Pepper/Williams, and Scheidt/Prada.
Wednesday, August 22: In the medal race, Robert Scheidt and Bruno Prada (BRA) won gold, after finishing second in the Star Medal Race behind Iain Percy and Andrew Simpson (GBR). The Brazilian duo add the test event title to the World Championship victory they recorded in Cascais in July and have really thrown down the gauntlet ahead of the Brazilian Star trials, where they will face Athens gold medallists Torben Grael and Marcelo Ferreira (BRA). Hamish Pepper and Carl Williams (NZL), the 2006 World Champions, won silver after finishing fourth in the Medal Race, while Xavier Rohart and Pascal Rambeau (FRA), 2005 World Champions, finished seventh in today_
