the prescribed International F18 course is 2 laps.
Any idea how they get the results on the net so quick? Its almost real time.
That's because it IS realtime, they're wearing GPS trackers
http://www.f18worlds2009.com/tracking I recall reading somewhere that there is a maximum of 5 races max per day (which makes sense I guess, 5 races in 20+ knots is very hard work).
The qualifiers are finished now since they already did 2 races on Monday (2+4=6 races).
It looks like the wind is slightly offshore, I bet they are hitting ridicilous speeds going downwind in that flat water.
