| No medals for Team VELUX |
|
Things went well for Team VELUX in Friday's first race. They gained a second place and gold was within reach. In the second race, they got a black flag. Team VELUX and 15 other boats were out of the race.

They already had a weighty 30th place from the previous day so yet another deduction was the last thing they needed. Without the breakaway they would have won their sixth World Championship title in a row even with a top 20 place. Overall, Team VELUX had to make do with a fifth place in this year's World Championship.
"It was entirely our own fault. We know perfectly well that we could have done it," says Flemming Fjord, who now has his eyes firmly fixed on the coming races.
