Posts: 12,310 South Carolina | This some confusion about that on the feed Reading between the lines, I think the RC asked Oracle if they wanted to shorten the break or extend the latest start time and they said "yes". Judging by Murray's uncomfortable attempt at saying something without saying too much, I don't think New Zealand answered their radio. The announcers were being fed something that made them think racing again was a possibility until it wasn't.

Posts: 6,049 Sebring, Florida. | Who came up with all these rules, re. the max race time,(only 40 minutes??) and 32 minutes between races, and no race can be started after 14:40 local, and and and...
I realize, "All the teams agreed to these rules..." but who came up with them? Seems pretty nutty, seems like they never wanted to get a second race off or a slow one finished!
