In the category of the gift that keeps on giving, former Oracle Racing sailor Matt Mitchell has filed a new suit against Oracle Racing. The suit details the way Simeon Tienpont admitted to working on the king post, but does not remember who was where or when with him when the work was done.
Oracle knew that Tienpont had altered a kingpost, but did nothing about it. Oracle Racing will of course have a chance to answer this suit. In the mean time, this suit raises many question and one of the most important questions will be about the ISAF Jury and how they could ignore an admission of guilt and yet let that sailor walk away cleanly. A part has been redacted and is under seal. Why is it sealed? Comment here.
