Polish windsurfers continued their superb form at the Sailing World Cup leg in Hyères today by leading both the male and female R:SX competitions with just the medal race to come.

World champion Piotr Myszka was a class apart in claiming the world title with a day to spare in Eilat earlier this year.

A ninth, third and a fifth place finish in the three races today put him on 52 points overall, three clear of compatriot Pawel Tarnowski, winner of the final race of the day.

Britain's Nick Dempsey lies in third place on 61 points.

Zofia Noceti-Klepacka, who finished fourth in the World Championships, leads in the corresponding women's event after another consistent day of racing.

She finished fourth, third and seventh across the three races to move onto 35 points, six clear of Britain's Bryony Shaw.

Charline Picon of France lies third on 44 points after a first and a second place finish today.

There was some Polish disappointment, however, as world champion Malgorzata Bialecka slid down to 11th place.

A win in the final race of the day lifted French duo Camille Lecointre and Hélène Defrance into pole position in the women's 470 event.

All remains to play for, however, in tomorrow's medal race as they lead by just one point over British rivals Hannah Mills and Saskia Clark.

Brazilian pair Fernanda Oliveira and Ana Luiza Barbachan fell to third after a below-par day in which they finished fifth, 13th and 11th.

Croatia's Sime Fantela and Igor Marenic hold a 19 point lead in the men's 470 class despite a discarded 12th place finish in the final race of the day.

Australian rivals Mathew Belcher and William Ryan suffered due to a 21st place score in the day's first race, which meant their 17th place earlier in the week was no longer discarded.

A win in the final race kept them in the medals hunt and on 38 points, two clear of Anton Dahlberg and Fredrik Bergström of Sweden.
