NICCOLO BERTOLA and MATTIA SAGGIO from Italy are the 2019 world champions of the Vaurien class. A title that comes after a series of ten races that saw the two athletes always at the top of the standings, dominating the fleet of 80 Vaurien on Lake Como (Colico). With only 13 points in the final result, they lead the runner up by 24 points and could have skipped the last day of racing and still win the title, but in true winner’s manner, they started and added another 1st and 3rd place to their scores.
Second place goes to FRANCESCO GRAZIANI and ALESSANDRO GOLINELLI, also from Italy, with 37 points, followed by the Spaniards PABLO CABELLO and MARIO PEREZ from Spain.
The Vaurien fleet says good-bye to a wonderful, perfectly organized, windy but very warm Championship at GEAS NBC Colico on Lago di Como. The next world championship, which will be the 59th in the history of the Vaurien class, will be sailed from July 25-31, 2020 in Le Havre, France.
