Australia hold onto their three top spots whilst there is just one change amongst the leaders in the latest release of the ISAF World Sailing Rankings on 3 October.
The Aussies stay at the top of the Laser, 470 Men and Tornado Rankings thanks to
Tom SLINGSBY,
Nathan WILMOT and
Malcolm PAGE, and
Darren BUNDOCK and
Glenn ASHBY respectively. The single change amongst the world #1 crews sees the Polish team of
Mateusz KUSZNIEREWICZ and
Tomasz HOLC move up one place to claim the top spot in the Star. Even without regular crew
Dominik ZYCKI, KUSZNIEREWICZ claimed a top ten finish at the recent ISAF Grade C1 Star Europeans to leapfrog
Xavier ROHART and
Pascal RAMBEAU (FRA) and reclaim the world #1 spot he held once before in May.
Despite Australia's three world #1 spots, it is Spain who can claim the title of top nation in this Ranking release with four teams occupying top three spots.
Marina ALABAU leads the RS:X Women Rankings,
Fernando ECHAVARRI and
Anton PAZ, and
Iker MARTINEZ and
Xavi FERNANDEZ lie second in the Tornado and 49er Rankings respectively, whilst
Ivan PASTOR stays at #3 in the RS:X Men Rankings.
It is also a very good Ranking release for Germany and Poland. The Germans, like Spain, hold four top three spots, whilst Poland hold two top spots and a second place. The Netherlands also perform well, however Great Britain drops off the pace somewhat. After being the top nation in the previous Ranking release, the Brits lose two of their top three spots and fall back to sixth nation.
