The South-American Championship in Rio - the final test before the Olympic Regatta - ended yesterday with three races, ... and the winners were for the first time in four years not the unbeatable Peter Burling/Blair Tuke NZL, but with a furious final (ranks 1/2/2) the 2012 Olympic Champions Nathan Outteridge/Iain Jensen AUS, followed by the tied Lukasz Przybytek/Pawel Kolodzinski POKL. The favorites from NZL remained 3rd.
