Jorge Zarif (BRA) kept his cool in the tense and exciting medal race at the Sailing World Cup Miami to keep his overnight lead and walk away with his first World Cup win. The London 2012 silver medallist, Jonas Høgh-Christensen (DEN) had to settle for silver while Arkadiy Kistanov (RUS) sailed a exceptional race to take the race win and the bronze. It was a medal race that delivered excitement, upset and emotion in ample measures.

Qingdao is still at the head of the fleet, now followed by Garmin in second and Derry~Londonderry~Doire in third*. However, the competition is as hot as the temperature, with the first eight boats within 12 nautical miles of each other.
