Nacra 17 Kiel Week 2022: Tita & Banti dominate

Six bullets out of 9 total races for current Olympic Nacra 17 Champs. Ruggero Tita & Caterina Banti dominate once more over a pretty competitive fleet at Kiel Week 2022. So much talent that Kolhoff-Stulehmer (Bronze Olympic) and Waterhouse-Darmanin (Silver Rio) finished 8th and 11th respectively.

Lange keeps struggling back with current upwind foiling pace and the young Arg crew of Majdalani & Bosco are right there close to the leading top ten pack, last regatta they even won the MR.

Italy having a strong team, Bissaro-Frascari always pushing and the youngsters Ugolini-Giubilei already in the top 5 and I have reports of them being super fast too. More regattas will bring them more consistency.
