Tornado Europeans at Lake Lipno, Czech Republic - Day 3

by Maria Tsaousidou 15 Jun 2015 08:32 BST 11-15 June 2015

Only one race was completed on the 3rd day of the 2015 Tornado Europeans, as thunderstorms were about to come to Lake Lipno. The wind varied between 6-12 knots during the race and the shifts were dominant once more.

The German crew of Roland and Nahid Gaebler finished first and are now leading the fleet having equal points with Dany Paschalidis and Kostas Trigonis from Greece. 2nd today were the Hellenic Police team of Nikolaos Mavros and Alex Tagaropoulos who are now up to third place overall.

David Krizek and Adam Zdenek managed to finish 3rd in the only race of the day and are now the 4th team overall.

In the Mixed category, Roland and Nahid Gaebler have a clear lead with the Czech team of Zdenek Pavlis - Michaela Pavlisova and Maurer Dieter - Oldenburg Katrin following them in second and third place respectively.

A trip to Cesky Krumlov and some good food after the race made this day perfect despite the rain that tried to mess things up!

So the Germans and Greeks are on equal points in the first two places. Some exciting races are expected for the last day of the championship.

Who is going to win?
