Leigh Kempton and Kaitlin Storck chased them throughout the race and finished 2nd ahead of British pair Joanna Brigg and Jane Turner and Italian team Carolina Mariani and Camilla Gabrielli, who had an excellent races to come 3rd and 4th.

These three pairs have already stamped their authority on the championship, Germany leading overnight from Great Britain, whose 8th place has proved costly for the time being. Spain are a close 3rd ahead of consistent British pair Joanne Macdonald and Laurie Marsden.
