The latest hardware
Despite the TP52s being into their fourth generation on the MedCup circuit, developments are still rife
At the Audi MedCup's Alicante Trophy Peter de Ridder's new Mean Machine scored their second day of back to back wins. We take a detailed look at the latest TP52 hardware on the circuit and gear developments. In the Artemis Transat there was disaster for Michel Desjoyeaux and Foncia yesterday, while the leading 60s were preparing for another difficult night. Roxy skipper Sam Davies describes her rig climb - see the latest from Miranda Merron. Following his incredible solo round the world voyage, Francis Joyon has some fresh challenges for his faithful maxi-tri IDEC. Toby Heppell updates us on getting to grips with his foiling Moth. Skandia Team GBR's paralympic team have won two golds at their effective pre-Olympic regatta. The Finn Masters have been won with a day to spare. With the iShares Cup soon to spark up, so some of the Extreme 40s are taking part in a training weekend in Valencia. See the line-up for this year's Sardinia Rolex Cup and the preview to the Archipelago Raid.
