49er, Nacra 17 - World Championship 2016 - Clearwater FL, USA - Day 4 - the Swiss

After the disappointing Thursday, Matias Bühler/Nathalie Brugger SUI returned to their old strengths yesterday and finished on the ranks 4/5/10 in the Nacra-17-catamarans. Only the premature start in the last race hampered an improvement of the overall rankings. As 8th, 10 points ahead of rank 11, they will endeavour to defend their place in the top-ten for the tomorrow's Medal Race in today's three races. With this, the Swiss Olympic selection criteria - a 12th final rank - would be fulfilled before the final day. The daily news of the Nacras.
Sébastien Schneiter/Lucien Cujean SUI produced also a premature start in the 49ers and this made them loose some places, remaining in the Silverfleet on position 50. The 49er daily news.
Today's racing can be followed livestream on this website as from 16.45 h UTC.
