Sailing medal races

The sailing medal races at the Paris Olympics in Marseille were postponed due to insufficient wind, with both the men's and women's skiff finals unable to proceed after hours of waiting in extreme heat. The men's race, which had begun, was abandoned during its second leg after Spain's Diego Botin and Florian Trittel initially led but were stalled by a lack of wind. Officials have rescheduled both medal races for Friday, with no clear indication of when or where they will occur. Athletes reported conditions were challenging, competing in temperatures reaching the low 90s. The race committee is exploring alternative locations in the bay for potential restarts. This decision follows an unusual day where multiple attempts to race were interrupted, leaving participants and spectators disappointed.
