Four time 505 world champion, Krister Bergstrom, racing with Thomas Moss led races four and five from start to finish at the 505 world championship in Durban. And with just one race to go they now lead the fleet.

The Bergstrom/Moss team had good gate starts, went the right way, and had very impressive speed in the 18-23 knot winds. Yesterday’s leaders, Mike Martin/Steve Bourdow finished in fourth and third place respectively today, while the Hamlin/Alarie team were fifth and fourth. 49er Olympic silver medallist Ian Barker was second and sixth, while UK and European 505 champions Ian Pinnell/Nick Powell were third and second.

In tomorrow’s final race it is possible for Martin/Bourdow to catch Bergstrom/Moss, while both Hamlin/Alarie and Barker/Cripps can catch Martin/Bourdow.
