Giles Scott (GBR) will head into the Rio Olympics having won the last major event before the Games begin in just over 50 days time. A second place in the medal race at the 2016 Sailing World Cup Weymouth & Portland was enough to maintain his lead on the final day. Jonathan Lobert (FRA) won the race to take the silver, while a fourth for Max Salminen (SWE) left him with the bronze.
