Thunderstorms followed by the infamous strong Bora wind, which gusted to over 30kts on the race course, proved too much for racing today at the Zadar Royal Cup, the second event of the 2018 52 SUPER SERIES. Therefore the standings remain the same with Luna Rossa leading the regatta by three points from Platoon with Phoenix in third, three points behind them. Racing is scheduled to resume Saturday with a warning signal at midday (CEST) for Race 5. All of the day’s action will be streamed live on 52 SUPER SERIES TV.
