Flashlight:
Jarek Miarczynski POL-127 was close to take the first place in the third race:
“… I was going in line with Wojtek and was about to takeover. To avoid crush I decided to tack the upper mark and to pass him by the left side. After tacking I was just 10 meters behind Wojtek. Then I realized I am so close to take 1st position that my leg muscles “felt really nervous” and I didn’t manage to overcome the pain and finished the race at second position”
