The one’s that have been forced to retire due to damages have really shown great competition level and that they really love this sport and this race. We had today a good spokesman of the retired teams. W4 skipper Michael Walther explains his feelings. “ We broke our jib today, and were unable to fix it and also my crew mate Marcus hurt his arm. Nothing really major but it was nevertheless impossible to continue racing without the jib and one crew member. That’s why we had to withdraw.
