Denis
Karpak (above) continues to lead the 48th Trofeo SAR Princesa Sofia
IBEROSTAR in Palma after two more races on Tuesday in slightly lighter
conditions. Dutchman, Nicholas Heiner is up to second while Race 4
winner Max Salminen, from Sweden, is up to third.

Alessio Spadoni of Italy and Piotr Kula of Poland. Max Salminen (below)
of Sweden, then won the second race from Alican Kaynar, of Turkey and

Heiner remains to be convinced about the new format being tested this week.
“We need to look at it at the end of the week, but my first impression
is ‘What are we doing?’ Try to explain this to the sailors and we don’t
really understand what we need to do. But so far we are just fleet
racing and we’ll see at the end of the week what we think about it, but
my first impression is very doubtful.”
Berecz added, “About the format I cannot answer now. If I’ll be in top three I will love it. But it opens up the game for sure.”
The opening series of the ‘game’ is now at its half-way stage. The goal here is not necessarily to win, but to survive to the later rounds. Racing in the opening series continues until Thursday. The Semi-Final Qualifier will be held on Friday for everyone not already qualified for the Final or Semi-Final. Then the eight-boat Semi-Final and the five-boat Final will complete the series, with the first across the finish line being the winner.
