With these results, combined with the Wingfoil Racing World Cup Italy held at Lake Garda last October, the very first Wingfoil Racing World Champions could be proclaimed: Paula Novotna and Mathis Ghio! With her two World Cup victories, Paula Novotna is undoubtedly the great champion of this circuit. She is followed by Orane Ceris, who finished third at Lake Garda, then second at Jericoacoara. And on the third step of the podium, we find the young Italian Margherita Barro, who finished 5th in Italy then 9th in Brazil. Among the men, Mathis Ghio finished 2nd at Lake Garda against Francesco Cappuzzo, but his victory in Brazil with a good margin over the latter assured him of having the title. We therefore find Francesco Cappuzzo in second place, after his victory in Italy and his 4th place in Brazil. And to complete the podium, we have Bastien Escofet in third position, with his results of 2nd in Brazil and 4th in Italy.
