giving Bou his second win. Mar

winner on day two, but he shared
race wins with his teammate
Marcelli, who topped race one by
three points over Bou. Busto was
third, just three points back.
Bou bounced back with a domi
-

by eight points over Marcelli, who
edged out Busto by a single point.

third. Beta's Matteo Grattarola
