A high pressure system is extending a ridge up into task area. The forecast is for the Gawler area to remain blue, with cumulus forming to the northeast to over 11,000ft - 3,300m.

Today a 416km task has been set going north first, then turning to the east into the expected cumulus. Yesterday the 412km task was completed at nearly 150kph. We can expect a similar speed today.

Erik Borgmann is 3 points ahead of Norm Bloch and the winner today will get 8 points and the second place 5 points. So Erik needs to do all he can to come home in 1st place to secure his position and Norm must come 1st today to win the grand prix.

It should be an exciting race.
