MAPFRE conquers China
An impeccable victory today for the Spanish team, in the Guangzhou in-port race, completing 4 laps of a windward/leeward course.
An impeccable victory today for the Spanish team, in the Guangzhou in-port race, completing 4 laps of a windward/leeward course.
After a painful start, in clearly light and unstable wind conditions, the Spanish team, skippered by Basque sailor Xabi Fernández, took command of the Around Hong Kong Island Race.
Xabi Fernández’s crew face the HGC In-port race and Around Hong Kong Island Race, being held this weekend (on Saturday and Sunday respectively), and whose combined results will count as one event on the Volvo Ocean Race In-Port Race Series scoring board.
