Laurent Hay, from France, is the new leader at the 2025 Finn Gold Cup after two more races were completed in Cascais, Portugal, on Wednesday. Hay took the lead on the second upwind to win from Peet and Germany’s Andre Budzien. Kistanov remarked, “It was a super tricky day almost as tricky as yesterday but the second race had a bit more wind, making it more constant. The second race was simpler, and I won it. Local sailor, Frederico Melo, commented, “Very hard day today, very light winds, with this fleet it is super hard.
