Coupe du pétrole de voile

Equipe IFP School ACPV 2019

IFP School participated in the 40th edition of the Coupe du pétrole de voile which took place in Marseille from May 24 to 27.

After a difficult start, with windier than expected weather and an understaffed crew on the 1st day of the regatta, the IFP School crew was able to straighten up to 4th place on the 2nd day, before finishing in style and winning the 2nd major coastal course on the 3rd day. The crew finished 3rd in the Monday heat.

Our team made itself known with a stage victory, something that only the first 3 placers, 5th and 6th out of the 17 participants were able to achieve!

Congratulations to the whole team:

  • IFP School: Pierre Duret, Cedric Lebot, Mourad Ataibi, Arthur Panis
  • IFP Training: Guillermo Ballesteros, Guy Bassal and Alexandre Morel
