The wind finally entered the Barcelona regatta field! Little, but enough for the Race Committee to manage to give three starts and three finishes. Three races with some showiness, and that give the necessary start to this Rolex TP52 World Championship, which has been stopped due to lack of wind on Tuesday and Wednesday.
The fleet led by Platoon Nico Martínez
The first of the sleeves was won by the German «Platoon» with authority, followed by an incredible «Gladiator», who since Guillermo Parada has taken charge of the team, the English have taken a great step in quality, especially in the starts and the tactic. They lack some discipline in their maneuvers, but event after event they improve their performance. At the moment they are second overall with two second places and one seventh and are fourth overall in the 52 Super Series circuit. As for the German boat, he has noticed a lot the genius of Vasco Vascotto, that any team that touches it revolutionizes it.
It was unbelievable, and still is, that many of the sailors of the now-defunct Italian-Argentine team “Azzurra” have not found equipment to continue sailing on the best cruise circuit in the world. Now Mariano and Guillermo Parada, Santiago Lange, Vasco Vascotto, Bruno Zirilli and David Vera are on the circuit, but many more would be missing who have enough quality to be there.

The second heat was for the “Sled”, followed by the “Phoenix”. In this circuit equality is very evident with exceptions. In three sleeves the positions dance a lot, anyone can win and there is little supremacy between teams. If we analyze the positions of the “cock” “Quantum” (8-4-7) it would seem incredible to us, that with the human potential he has, he is eighth ten points from the head, but the 52 super Series are like that and much more in this Rolex TP52 World Championship.
The third race was won by the Turkish “Provezza”, with a great Santi Lange who has given stability to the team, followed again by the “Gladiator”, who is two points behind the leader, and that as this Rolex is developing TP52 World Championship could come as a surprise, although according to Guillermo Parada, “this year our objective is to focus the team and get them out of the monotony in which they were. We will win a race, but I am much more concerned with getting the starts and maneuvers right. Little by little”.
The three third-placed riders of the “Alegre” stand out, which for this Rolex TP52 World Championship has hired Luis Doreste as a consultant, who incomprehensibly is in the support pneumatics.
For tomorrow, María Torrijo, PRO of the Rolex TP52 World Championship, plans to give another three starts, so that with the two that she will do on Saturday they add up to eight and the Rolex TP52 World Championship has been a success.
