Spanish duo return to Olympics after Beijing medal row
Admin Thu Apr 19, 2012 12:42 am
Former Olympic champions Iker Martinez and Xabi Fernandez have the
chance to avenge their disputed defeat in the 49er class race in Beijing
after being selected to represent Spain again in the London Games in
July and August.
The pair were denied a second gold to follow their Olympic triumph in
Athens in 2004 after the Danish duo, whose boat was broken, borrowed a
replacement from already eliminated Croatia for the deciding race in
China.
The Danes just pipped them for first place and sparked a furious
protest from silver-medallists Spain and the Italian team, which was
rejected.
"I think we can be prepared, if not we wouldn't even try," Fernandez told the Spanish sailing federation website.
The pair finished second in the Olympic practice event in Weymouth last year.
"The Weymouth course is a good place for us," Martinez added.
"Normally the conditions are good, there is a wind but nothing
excessive. It won't be as difficult as in Beijing for example. We like
the place, we have usually done well there and without doubt it is a
point in our favour."
