Michele Ivaldi (ITA) navigator Artemis (SWE):

“These are the typical conditions that we designed the boat for. The boat is exactly the same as Marseille, we have a couple of new sails. Here a matter of a metre or a metre and half at the windward mark can make all the difference, you can be second or you can be ninth.”

“Paul is more analytical. He is more focussed on the numbers. We have established a good work on analysing the performance every day. Russell is a lot more instinctive.

Rusell’s style is very different and he talks a lot to Torbjorn, he has taught him a lot and made Torbjorn learn a lot, it is always great with Russell on board. Paul tends to let them (the crew) do the speed work themselves and talks a little less with Torbjorn.”

“Today, keeping it simple was the call. Key was a good first beat, and we were able to pass to leeward of Bigamist when they gybed on us. After that it was a horse track.”

“For the mid point of the season Team New Zealand is really, really strong. They have great starts all the time and so they almost have probability to be in the top five at each top mark. Really strong in tactics, and really good boat handling. But today is the mid-point of the season and so nothing is over and we won’t be giving up any points.”

“We feel great. We had a good analysis and de-brief after Marseille, we worked on the weaknesses and it seems to have worked.”

Nu skall kommentarerna vara inne... ligger i en annan applikation (intense debate). Så man måste registrera sig igen. Fördelen är att det kan bli mer interaktivt...

Låt oss prova detta ett par dagar, så kan vi se hur/om det funkar.

Vad som vore bra då är att ni håller er till ett alias. Ett fåtal av er har flera, men då vore det bra (och kul) om ni höll er till ett par, typ "Skipper Jekyll" och "Bowman Hyde"...
