The athlete said he will “enjoy” this championship a little more. “At the World Cup I was more tense, more serious, more focused. Now it’s time to enjoy it a little more,” he said, when celebrating his return to the C1 500m races.
In the continental Paracanoe competition, Luís Carlos Cardoo, world runner-up last week, won the KL 1 200m title.
Igor Tofalini and Fernando Rufino also had reason to celebrate: they repeated the gold and silver double in the VL2M 200m, last week, at the World Championships.
