What happened during The Grand Prix

Prior to the competition, we had interviewed the Grand Prix's host Michael Menegos from Havana Club. During our discussion, he predicted that the following would happen:

"We won't see something uniform and consolidated. We will see molecular drinks. We will see simple and very effective recipes. My prognosis is that Europe has a great chance because of their advancement. Asia may come up with great hosts as well and excellent techniques, as always. I expect an amalgamation of different cultures."

To prove him right, Marcis Dzelzainis from London won (let's agree the UK is European for once, shall we?), and the bartenders indeed showed great technical skills as well as amazing hosting techniques.

In this third round-up video of the Grand Prix, Michael interprets the event with numbers and introduces us to the competitors and the judges, who are, in his own words, "the best of the trade".
