Not sure what to think of the new format though, it seems to me that winner-takes-all final race just isn't all that fair. You could be sailing bullets all week and then finish 4th in that final race (for whatever reason) and lose out on a medal.
What new format? The reults for the medal race are up, same as the old format (points count double, cannot be discarded).
What am I missing?
Nice job by Reiss (and his Sarah) to take a bullet in the medal race. Sarah and JC had their worst finish of the week, but almost couldn't be caught overall.
