Kiwis on brink
Print Edition
Emirates Team New Zealand will have to wait at least one more day to wrap up a spot in the America’s Cup match against defending champion Oracle Team USA. The Kiwis set a race record on the new 72-foot catamarans on Saturday, sailing swiftly in a strong wind off San Francisco to beat Italy’s Luna Rossa in the Louis Vuitton Cup finals again. Officials scrapped the second race because of exceeding wind. Two races were planned yesterday, though Team New Zealand only needs one win to advance. The Kiwis lead Luna Rossa 6-1 in the best-of-13 challenger series. The winner will face Oracle for the oldest active trophy in international sports starting September 7.
