Americas Cup – Auckland NZL – Day 5 – Two victories for Team NZL


Light winds made for some dramatic racing in Auckland this morning. In the second match, the name of the game was to stay on the foils in very light and inconsistent winds: Luna Rossa, leading by 5 minutes, stalled in a windless patch and did not start flying again until 9 minutes later. This made New Zealand the first team to book two wins in one day. Score 5-3 in this best-of-13 race. The report with the video highlights.
