Flatwater World Cup #2 - Szeged Hungary

The Hungarian canoe-kayak website for World Cup is usually really good but this year it's brutal. I don't even know how I found the results. I was so frustrated, I started opening every link and there they were. Apparently Graham is sending results from his Blackberry to Ann and she's forwarding them on through email. I've sent Ann the link via Carrie so hopefully they'll get it out through a canoe-kayak alert. Reports are that conditions are bad - wind & whitecaps are wreaking havoc on some lanes and crews have tipped. Here are results for Day 1 (racing is done for the day so if you don't see a final, we weren't in it);
