Peter lost his rig and had a bad day due to tuning a new mast. He finished only 3 places behind Max. Max had no such problems. Hence Peter being a better sailor and a better chance for the country. Although Max may have qualified the country that didn't give him the place. They could have even picked Prof O'Connell or Max if they wanted to but they didn't, that is the steering committee's decision so lets get behind Peter for the Olympics and stop unsettling their training with this ''ArgieBargie''!! |
Peter did not loose the rig. He broke it. You may as well claim Lewis Hamilton should be 2007 Formula 1 Champion. He was the quickest and would have been no 1 in the points except for the fact he broke his rig! Max and Prof had to watch and beat each other in Miami so no heroics. You dont win world events by breaking your boat. |
Yes that is true!! But the point I am making is if you had to pick the best driver, who you think would have the best chance to win you'd pick Hamilton. That is why they picked Peter. |
