Following a series of delays earlier in the competition due to too little wind, on Tuesday, May arrived with a roar, as 20 to 25 knot westerly winds buffeted Valencia. With the breeze blowing from the shore to the sea, the water was relatively flat at race time, but with gusts approaching 30-knots, the Race Committee hoisted the AP flag, signalling a postponement.
The wind never eased and over the course of the afternoon a swell of over one metre developed. Racing was postponed for the day at 16:00 on both race areas. Flights 3 and 4 are now on the schedule for Wednesday afternoon.
