Anton Dahlberg and Lovisa Karlsson of Sweden move into the lead with a 2, 1, score at the 470 Mixed European Championship.
Dahlberg and Karlsson take a two point lead ahead of the two Spanish teams . . . Jordi Xammer and Nora Brugman (3, -14), and Silvia Mas Depares and Nicolás Roddriguez (-18, 5)
Winners of the first gold fleet race were Hippolyte Machetti and Aloïse Retornaz (1, 6) of France, which moves them into seventh overall.
Britain’s Martin Wrigley and Eilidh McIntyre (11, -17) drop to ninth overall with 56 pts and will now be under pressure to maintain a Top 10 place to compete in the Medal race.
Vita and William Heathcote (15, 16) remain in 15th overall on 81 pts and looking unlikely to make the Medal race.
Charlotte Leigh and Alex Hughes (6, 7) racing in the Silver fleet had a good day and retain their 11th place.
The forecast is for a stronger breeze for Saturday and Sunday which may help the British crews improve their positions, at least as far as the Medal race is concerned if not the podium places.
