Default Malta P1

just came from the wetpits with all teams preparing

Cigarette boats looks great as does the Fountain

the Italcraft boat looked totally different to this

and instead it looked like a Metamarine, may be some insider can give some information about this....

GFN Gibellato takes the pole again
and OSG and Honeyparty are a whisker togather
Fountain is 5th and Cigarette 6th, with Pignolo 53 4th
Pignolo looked very good as did the OSG boat

the story with the Italcraft is that Panatta will be using the Metamarine boat (it might be the no.64 with new branding and stickers) for Malta, as some teething problems and engine trouble surrounds the real Italcraft according to the P1 radio
he still might get some points, I tought it got a better time in the poles then 7th
strangely enough nor Lucas Oil, nor Searex competed, same goes for Centurian but that was expected for the trouble they had in Marseille

watched both races today NICE conditions was a NW wind with Force 5 seas and good 2 metre waves

Conam Yachts looked dominatant as ever in the Supersport, but the show was given by VoomVoom Hustler who from last finished a good second, IMPRESSIVE
Baia finished third after a good start race and nearing a second place

Evolution
what a race! The bad news was that Cigarette did not compete, had a problem of some sorts during trial a few minutes before the race which we watched them going in harbour with what looked like one engine!!! still they entairtained us as they run the course practisiing and up tuning there boat
the good news was the win by OSG Outerlimits, this boat looked like a bullet, second place to GFN Gibellata what a race from last to second this boat is solid as a rock in choppy waters and the more it drinks fuel the faster it gets, and finally Honeyparty finished third
unbeatable Fountina came to fifth after a problem in the last 2laps, but Gibellato was closing in at the time
Fantastic and Spectacular race now we wait for tommorow

SuperSport just finished
again dominated by Coman
nice battle but for 2nd place between Baia, VoomVoom and Buzzi Bullet, all of them wer second at a point during the race

both Buzzi Bullet and VoomVoom stopped down also at one point, if voomvoom would have not stopped it would have been second for sure
Hustler has the potential to win IMO, Big Sergio boat also looked good but they have some trouble going on with the boat
