Sailing Finn Men Medal Race Full Replay from Weymouth and Portland at the London 2012 Olympic Games. -- 5 August 2012
Sailing was first contested as an Olympic sport at the 1900 Paris Games. Since then, the classes of boats allowed to compete have continually evolved to reflect advances in yacht design and technology. Equipment advances over the past 20 years have created a trend towards smaller and lighter craft, placing ever greater demands on both the athletic and technical capacities of the sailors.

I can't believe there aren't any comments on this amazing race! Ainslie really blew everyone away with this 4th consecutive Glod Medal and hats off to J.Lobert, French outsider who managed to bring home the bronze. It's a shame the fantastic sport doesn't garner more attention from the media and the spectators, those who have already raced will agree it's an extremely physical challenge.
SIR BEN AINSLIE THE GREATEST SAILOR ON THE PLANET!!!
shaene ian
shaene ian NO, the greatest Olympic sailor
Did really good last Americas Cup...
wow world class race
Seems pretty light for the O flag/ Pumping allowed
I love how they didn't talk about how France ended up 3rd
Small margins, outstanding skipper.
Wow! I love this class, i wanna be a female ainslie because I live for my topper (I'm getting a bigger boat next year but race a topper now)
Hi Gabrielle! lots of young guys start off in single handers like the Topper. The next big deal is to think carefully about what to do next. Rather than spending a lot of loot that you probably don't even have, this is the time to crew in an exciting 2person trapeze dinghy. You need a good club with a decent fleet of one design boats. Start off with a fairly stable older design like a Fireball, or 5-0-5, and learn how to be really competent at roll tacking, gybing and spinnaker handling. Then find a good and experienced helmsman to crew for. I promise you'll learn so much more that way!

PS I'm not her dad!
I never really watched the Olympics much, and I always watch lasers and sail them
So watching this feels weird coz I never watched Finns, they look so weird, I can't explain why lmao
More leg room lol, lasers are cramped asf
DAN didn't control GBR just after start, he lost that risky game
im amazed the pumping is allowed
Special rules for them and 470 sailors. It is to add to the athleticism.
All classes apart from laser
How come such extreme pumping is allowed?
+Binara Kevin the jury look through the fingers when it's about pumpig in finn sailing
orange flag. everything is allowed
orange is flag is the other end of the starting line
It is written in to the class rules.
4 gold medal... and a silver... and an Amercia's Cup !
but he didn't win the America's Cup
@@jped5900 He won with Oracle Team USA after his last Olympic Gold and before founding BAR
But he lost vs Luna Rossa!!!
What's the duration or distance in Finn Men can anyone answer please
I think 30 minutes
People tell me that sailing is boring but I know they are dead wrong, it's fast paced, intense, and can actually be pretty dangerous what with the speed and amount of force exerted by the wind on the boats
THAT PORT TACK BARGIN frog SHOULDA BEEN DQ'D
how did he win did France 1 st one to finish
I dont know anything about sailing btw
@@EMY.sr. Hi, sailing uses a ten race series. Points are awarded by finish place in each of these races. Two of those races can be discarded. The top 10 boats then go into a double points medal race ( The medal race can not be discarded). The winner of the gold medal is the helm that comes out on top after the series is completed. Hope this helped.
@@seanricketts941 oh Thank you. now it is even more amazing to me
