这是里斯本连续第三届承办沃尔沃帆船赛，而这一次它的身份有了一些转变。
自2016年起，这座城市正式成为沃尔沃帆船赛船坞，队伍的船坞专家们将在这里严阵以待。当你来到赛事村时可别忘了看看船坞，在这里你会明白让帆船做好准备竞赛需要多少努力。
这是有历史的城市。
里斯本是欧洲最古老的大型首都城市，同时也是15、16世纪航运帝国的中心。如今，里斯本是拥有50万人口的经济中心。当你穿梭在老城镇迷宫般的街道中，在数不清的酒吧里喝上一杯，你同样能感受到这座城市的历史韵味。你可以搭上28路电车开始你的旅程，千万别错过世界文化遗产之一的贝伦塔。这里白天的平均气温是舒适的18度，十一月的夜晚温度则会是11摄氏度。这里也许会下点雨，毕竟这里是大西洋海岸。但月均降雨量只有16mm，我们也不必太过担心。
Team Brunel win an incredible Mirpuri Foundation In-Port Race Lisbon. The sprint around the Portuguese city had a little bit of everything – including an unforgettable photo finish!
Bouwe Bekking’s Team Brunel fended off a late charge by MAPFRE to win the Mirpuri Foundation In-Port Race Lisbon on Friday afternoon.
Conditions were challenging, to say the least, with squalls bringing rain and gusty, shifting winds. Not only that, but the confines of the mouth of the Tagus River meant a short leg length, with four laps of the race course – plenty of manoeuvres and boat handling for the teams.
“I think we did well, we’ve made huge steps as a team,” Bekking said following the race. “I mean it’s always nice to win but I think we sailed pretty nicely today. There was a huge wind shift at the end and that always makes the decisions tricky but I think we made the right calls. We sailed very conservative - as you will have seen we kept our big sail up, kept it simple and that worked very well for us today.”
Seven boats, four short laps and some incredible racing conditions – what's not to love? Watch the Mirpuri Foundation In-Port Race in 150 seconds:
