SOUTHAMPTON, England : After an absence of more than 20 years, sailing's Admiral's Cup will make its return when Britain once again will host the international regatta recognised as the unofficial world cup for offshore yacht racing.
Poema Newland and Jessie Kampman continued France's remarkable run in the Formula Kite Women on day three of the Allianz Regatta. The pair have won 11 of 12 heats between them with Newland accounting for seven of those to open up a sizable lead at the top of the standings. Ad Kampman has been less consistent, sitting fourth overall, but has managed four bullets of her own including two more on day three.
The chance to compete at a home Olympics is not offered to every elite athlete, even less so when competition is taking place an hour from where you grew up. So while Axel Mazella is doing everything within his power not to think about Paris 2024, the Frenchman admits it is not easy. Ad Leading the way in the Formula Kite Men at the Allianz Regatta through two days of competition, Mazella is one of a strong French contingent looking to nab the lone spot on the host team in Marseille next year.
A pair of second-place finishes from Finland's Valtteri Uusitalo was enough for him to move into first place overall, despite two wins for Willem Wiersema, who is now up to third. And with just three points separating the top three — previous leader Duko Bos is second — it is the most evenly-matched class of the six so far. Ad Uusitalo's performance means Dutch sailors lead in three of the six classes after two days, with pedigree telling in both the 49er and the iQFOiL.
Day two of the Allianz Regatta saw lead changes in three classes with the ILCA 7 looking like the tightest of all as it stands. A pair of second-place finishes from Finland's Valtteri Uusitalo was enough for him to move into first place overall, despite two wins for Willem Wiersema, who is now up to third. Ad And with just three points separating the top three – previous leader Duko Bos is second – it is the most evenly-matched class of the six so far.
The opening day of action of the Allianz Regatta was dominated by the Dutch on home waters as they led the way in four of the six classes in action. In fact it was only in the two Formula Kite classes that the home competitors were denied, with a strong French showing. Ad Perhaps the standout performance for Dutch fans came in the iQFOiL Men, where Luuc van Opzeeland led a Dutch 1-2-3 through four heats.
The first of two major sailing regattas in Dutch waters begins in Almere and Lelystad this week with the Allianz Regatta — the second Sailing World Cup of the season. Two months out from the World Championships in The Hague, there will be six classes competing from 31 May to 4 June.
