Yachting: Shifty wind postpones racing

Racing in the challenger series was postponed in Valencia again this morning due to insufficient, shifty wind.

Just two races in flight ten and two races in flight eleven were completed on the north course.

The south course never developed all day.

Race organisers moved the boats on the south course to the north course but then the north course died.

The boats then went back to the south course and for a moment it looked like racing would start. However it never did.

In the races sailed Areva Challenge beat United Internet Team Germany by 1m 03s. Areva lost their second race to Shosholoza by after they messed up their penalty turn.

Italy's +39 picked up a win over China Team who were forced to sit the race out and deal with their structural problems. +39 went on to beat United Internet Team Germany by 57s.

Team New Zealand are scheduled to race Victory Challenge and BMW Oracle Racing tonight.
