Medal Ceremony will be interesting
quiet satisfaction and immense smugness for ainsley |

hardly did it in style....ninth in final race....got lucky, Dutch guy v close to taking 2nd before last buoy

9th because he was occupied with the Danish and they had an unfavourable wind shift, maximises his chances to win
|
|
By:
preoccupied with the Dane, i'd say....the 2 lads earlier made the same mistake and paid dearly

Big Ben

Postma was never 2nd at a mark, he could have changed his tactics if he was sailing away with it, it was essential to cover the Dane
|

By:
Well done Ben. Also congrats to the Swedes in the star. Percy and Simpson did a great job spoiling the Brazilian but were a bit thick with the maths.

Incredible comeback by Ainslie.
What was his highest price to win the Gold? |
|
By:
He went 3.0 for hundreds and maybe a bit higher, Dane hit 1.2/3

lovely to see my old stamping ground
poole and weymouth are really good places to visit etc always been a big favourite of mine and superb places to sail inside the breakwater is excellent at portland on the safety side of things but dont go to the RACES outside on the point!!! - portland bill!!!! been through it a few times - rather exciting!!! but do visit the area |

Pretty much the only mistake the Dane made was capsizing, even when he had penalty turns in one of the early races he still won easily. Ainslie's experience won him it, the Dane should have been the one shutting Ainslie out in the final few races but it was Ainslie doing it to him
