A glass half full or half empty kind of day?

Today, in terms, of the total duration of the 2010 Audi MedCup Circuit it is the theoretical mid-point of the season. Half way there.....a day for teams to reflect if their glass if is half full or half empty. The TP52 Series have raced 19 races so far and most of the teams will be hoping for more races in the second half of the season than in the first.

The leaderboard for the TP52 overall series still shows Emirates Team New Zealand with a lead of 18.5 points, just as it was when we arrived here in Barcelona, whilst in the GP42 Series now Madrid - Caser Seguros and Islas Canarias Puerto Calero are tied on 39 points apiece.
Yesterday proved extremely close in the TP52 Series on the waters off Barcelona. Three boats returned to the dock yesterday locked on 13 points, one behind the leader of the Camper Regatta - Conde de Godo Trophy - Barcelona, Quantum Racing (USA).

The forecast for today, the second day of racing for the TP52 and GP42's, suggests light and variable winds only around start time, somewhere in the realms of between 3 and 10 knots between 160 degrees and 220 degrees - that is what is meant by 'variable'. The winds are likely to build to between nine and 13 knots by the middle of the afternoon but the breeze should stablise around 180-200 degrees, some models showing up to 18kts of windspeed. That would be nice.

Three windward leeward races are scheduled for both Series today with scheduled start sequence at 1300hrs. Audi MedCup TV goes live at 1250hrs CET.

Tonight in the Audi MedCup Public Village Debilorithmicos play at 1930hrs.
