Much better start by Spithill then a shocker of a first gybe. They have definitely found more speed. Then another monumental blunder by US at the bottom of leg 4. Their last gybe on that leg was 30 seconds too late. In spite of all that, their boat speed got the win. "here we go", famous last words.
USA were lucky at the top of leg 5. They got a huge lift and NZ were knocked. Luck. Spithills comment to his team after the race "here we go" was encouraging but not to be. NZ were way superior in that regatta.
Need morw time between posting the races. Toutube had race 6 up before 5. Also I wish you would turn off comments until the day after you post the race, not everyone's watching this live.
It literally has the date of the race in the description. Unless your internet connection has the worst lag in the history of computing, this is far from live.
@@kwerk2011 Looking forward to March 2021 when the next [New Zealand] Cup will be held in Auckland. ... Grant Dalton says, "The geography of Auckland allows many exciting race course options in close proximity to elevated vantage points for spectators on land." Sounds like a Great Time!!
So amazing listening to an AC race without Shirley Robertson's screeching/shouting voice sounding like 17 shovels being dragged down a concrete driveway. Please do not ever allow her to commentate on any event, ever again.
So the Oregon finally found some decent speed, making for a significant equalization. Wondering what was done and why they hesitated so long. But there'll probably be answers to look up, this was after all two years ago...
