Tony Langley’s Gladiator crew proved they are in great shape for the fourth regatta of the 52 SUPER SERIES when they won the practice race for the Porto Cervo 52 SUPER SERIES Audi Sailing Week in light conditions around a windward-leeward course. As has become their habit, home team Azzurra steered away from the finish line to stick by their superstition of not crossing the line in the practice race. The regatta starts Wednesday with a short coastal race scheduled. Winds are expected to remain light. Eleven teams have entered.
