Big right shift and more pressure on that side. NZL went all the way left before tacking. Probably just minimizing maneuvers.

NZL tacking to cover, but SWE looking decent.

Mike

Breeze down to 5 knots, approaching first windward gate.

NZL dialing down, SWE protests, no penalty. SWE takes slight lead, will be on stbd for next tack. No one laying yet.

SWE found a big hole on the right.

Mike

NZL luffs SWE coming into the gate, SWE tacked away, but SWE gets a penalty. This is going to suck.

Mike

They are going to hit the time limit. deja vu from AC34 . . .

They shortened the course, SWE crawling ahead, now slipping back, but the time limit is likely to be a bigger problem.

Mike

Wind just about 2 knots, about 2 minutes to N flag...

Mike

Wow, NZL holding their jib out, Hobie 16-style!!!

Mike

Game over, race abandoned.

Mike

NZL fans must be losing their minds!!!

Mike

Looks like they're all but done for today.

Mike

not so fast. 6 marks averaging over 6 knots so wind is building.

Yes, NBCSN (online) has extended their broadcast. The boats are foiling around in just under 7 knots of breeze at the moment, cutoff time is 4:35 (I'd assume that's the latest start time).

Edit: no start after 4:35 Bermuda time (3:35 eastern), under 25 minutes to go.

Mike

Adjusting and shortening the course. Looks like they are going to try to get in a start sequence before time deadline.

We are in start sequence

App showing start in 4 minutes.

Wow, NZL got a great start and held SWE to lead at Mark 1.

Big right shift halfway through, NZL extending.

Mike

Rematch, USA vs NZL.

Mike

So are we going to see bikes on Oracle? Or are they going to stick with the traditional grinding?

What other changes will we see from Oracle's last race?
