Light winds and an unfavorable weather forecast prevent Race 5 from getting underway in Miami
There was no racing today at the 2026 Star World Championship Presented by Schoonmaker, as the lack of wind on Biscayne Bay prevented Race 5 from getting underway.
The Principal Race Officer (PRO) initially postponed racing ashore for one hour before sending the fleet out onto the water. However, after another 30 minutes of waiting for suitable conditions, racing was abandoned for the day. The forecast of passing rainstorms further reduced the already slim chances of the breeze filling in enough to allow racing.
With no changes to the standings, Diego Negri and Sergio Lambertenghi (ITA) remain at the top of the leaderboard with 35 points, followed by Will Stout and Danny Cayard (USA) and Eivind Melleby (NOR) and Christian Nehammer (AUT), tied on 38 points.
The championship now heads into its final scheduled day tomorrow, Saturday, November 14, with two more races starting at 11.00 and the coveted Gold Star still very much up for grabs.
