Phase Reports

On winning their semifinal
Tom George (GBR)

On winning their semifinal:
"It was good. The wind's a bit of a challenge that we haven't really faced in the racing so far this season. We're dealing with that pretty well, and I'm pretty happy we were able to control the race basically from start to finish."

Oliver Wynne-Griffith (GBR)

On whether they will examine the times of the other semifinal:
"I haven't got much to do back at the hotel this afternoon.

"It's good to be on the right side of the timing sheets, but when you line up on finals day all bets are off, they mean nothing."

On the final:
"Tomorrow's a new day, we made a good step today from yesterday, so we just go and do that again tomorrow and put out the best performance we can and the result will be what it will be.

"The pressure goes up a little bit. Wth the conditions here it's a bit of a longer race, the last two days have been pretty similar. We're not going to change too much, we trust in what got us here. I guess we'll just find another per cent or two in everything we do, and take care of business."
