Impressively, this GC32 World Championship, the pinnacle event of the season, was their first ever GC32 Racing Tour event victory.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cI am absolutely happy,\u201d said Zuerrer. \u201cI want to thank my family who gave me the time to stay away from home and\u2026yes, we did it, finally!<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cWe managed to find the breeze best of all the teams. We started well and we had to keep the boat moving \u2013 that was most important. Maybe we were also lucky that we were always on right side of the pressure. It was shifty and they might have stopped the races, but we always tried to be in the leading position.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Black Star is unique for her owner trimming main, rather than helming. This instead is handled by Kiwi match racer Chris Steele. Also on board were Italian Pierluigi De Felice, Kiwi Stewart Dodson and Brit Will Alloway. Steele famously won the Optimist Worlds in 2007. \u201cThis is up there!\u201d he said of how it ranks. \u201cIt is cool to be part of this project. There are some awesome guys in the teams.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">As to their performance, Steele added: \u201cWe have always been strong in the light, so that played into our hands. I have to give credit to K-Challenge, they came out of the blocks firing early on, which surprised people and were there right to the end. They were really quick upwind, but we were fast upwind, but really fast downwind.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">K-Challenge Team France led this Championship by 10 points on Friday but skipper Quentin Delapierre was happy in defeat: \u201cWe lost the title by a few points, but that is racing and we just tried to play our game until the end.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cBlack Star raced very well and improved well over the week. They were really quick in light conditions, so I was happy to match them, over such a short time, speed-wise and sometimes with boat handling.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Having won today\u2019s second race, the French posted an uncharacteristic seventh in the third putting them three points behind going into what would be the final race. This they again led until the final top mark rounding when a gennaker sheet jammed. Sorting this dropped them to eighth as the Swiss team scored another bullet.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Alinghi Red Bull Racing claimed the bottom rung of the podium, with 24-year-old Maxine Duchelin rather than Arnaud Psarofaghis helming. Team Tilt was fourth, the 2018 World Champions enjoying their best day so far: winning today\u2019s first race by a huge margin and leading the second until they missed the last shift. Skipper S\u00e9bastien Schneiter said they were unrehearsed for the light conditions: \u201cIt has been a great event \u2013 tricky conditions, with amazing racing and the top guys sailed really well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Team Rockwool Racing saw little of the strong conditions they had hoped for and finished four points ahead of sixth placed Erik Maris\u2019 Zoulou, once again top of the four owner-driver teams competing.<\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text --><!-- module image -->\n<div  class=\"module module-image tb_nqyv598 image-top   auto_fullwidth tf_mw\" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div class=\"image-wrap tf_rel tf_mw\">\n            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blackstarsailing.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/220717_SAILINGENERGY_GC32_LAGOSWORLDS_4974_5984-1000x667-1.jpg\" class=\"wp-post-image wp-image-8991\" title=\"220717_SAILINGENERGY_GC32_LAGOSWORLDS_4974_5984-1000x667\" alt=\"GC32 Racing Tour 2022.

In the end we had some great fun and sailed well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWinning the owner driver championship is always good and we are happy with that, but we were really looking at the overall results. It was good that there were four owner-driver boats out of 10 and there should be more joining this fleet: The boat is incredible, the fleet is very nice and the racing is the best in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jason Carroll\u2019s Argo showed promise but only managed to podium in today\u2019s final race while the new Polish team, Piotr Harasimowicz\u2019s HRM Racing Team and especially the Graeme Sutherland-steered Team Canada both had good moments today.<\/p>\n<p>Delighted with his conclusion to the regatta was Simon Delzoppo and his .film AUS Racing which led the final two races, managing to convert those to two seconds. \u201cWe were getting off the start line well today. You need clear air and today was about trying to find the breeze and stay in it. It was nice to be up there with Black Star and not to lose it!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wearing his GC32 class President hat Delzoppo added: \u201cIt was an awesome regatta. It was good to see that there was no obvious winner going in. There were plenty of races to allow the best to rise to the top and we have a new winner: Black Star worked hard and kept getting better. They were very fast through the water. It was a well-deserved win.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The GC32 Racing Tour now moves on for its final event of the season in Mar Menor, Spain over 19-23 October.<\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text --><!-- module buttons -->\n<div  class=\"module module-buttons tb_wydu716 buttons-vertical solid  large circle\" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div class=\"module-buttons-item tf_in_flx\">\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blackstarsailing.ch\/en\/gc32\/gc32-galerie\/\" class=\"ui builder_button tf_in_flx red\" >\n                                                to the GC32 gallery                                        <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<!-- \/module buttons -->\n<!-- module buttons -->\n<div  class=\"module module-buttons tb_bap491 buttons-vertical solid  large circle\" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div class=\"module-buttons-item tf_in_flx\">\n                        <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gc32racingtour.com\/news\/\" class=\"ui builder_button tf_in_flx red\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n                                                to the original GC32 Racing Tour news feed                                        <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<!-- \/module buttons -->\n<!-- module buttons -->\n<div  class=\"module module-buttons tb_ell2355 buttons-vertical solid  large circle\" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div class=\"module-buttons-item tf_in_flx\">\n                        <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gc32racingtour.com\/results\/\" class=\"ui builder_button tf_in_flx red\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n                                                to the GC32 results                                        <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<!-- \/module buttons -->\n        <\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n<!--\/themify_builder_content-->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Repost of GC32 Website | K-Challenge Team France was the dominant force for the first half of this GC32 World Championship, held in Lagos, Portugal, but for the second half it was Christian Zuerrer\u2019s Black Star Sailing Team which overtook the French after today\u2019s third of four races.
