The breeze is expected to fill in from the south as the day progresses going from 5-10 knots to 6-12 knots.

The 49er, 49erFX, Laser, Laser Radial and Nacra 17 will conclude their week with their Medal Races. There's some close racing expected with small margins separating many of the competitors.

The Men's and Women's 470 and Finn will conclude their fleet racing with two races apiece. Finn sailors will compete on Escola Naval whilst the Men's and Women's 470 course area has been moved from Ponte to Niteroi due to objects in the water. With six racing areas being used throughout the week the race management team have great flexibility with six racing areas able to be utilised.

You will be able to follow the Medal Races once they get going by viewing LIVE 2D tracking on the ISAF website here - www.sailing.org/olympics/rio2016/multimedia/live_tracking.php
