EXSS Day One in Hamburg | News: "The Wave, Muscat skippered by Leigh McMillan ... only just top the overnight leader board on 57 points. Two points adrift on 55, SAP Extreme Sailing Team got to grips with the challenges of the new venue finishing with two race wins and two seconds. Rounding up the leaderboard, Gazprom Team Russia came into the Act confident that the strong tidal conditions and tight racecourse would suit Kiwi helm Phil Robertson’s style of racing... After a slow start they stormed the final three races to take convincing wins in each, rounding up the overnight leaderboard in third place, one point behind SAP Extreme Sailing Team in second ... With nine points separating third place from the chasing pack, Red Bull Sailing Team in fourth, Team Turks powered by Kaya Ropes in fifth and Oman Air in sixth each had moments at the front of the fleet but struggled with the consistency needed to challenge for the podium."
