Wakey, wakey... America’s Cup semifinals
It’s time to check out the improvements made by the main challengers, as the Italian, Swiss, American and British teams battle it out for the right to face Team New Zealand.
That’s if you care enough about this regatta yet, and I can barely find anyone bothered with the midnight racing from Barcelona so far.
Here’s the question: has Team New Zealand boss Grant Dalton sunk his treasure by taking the America’s Cup contest to Barcelona?
From a New Zealand point of view, it’s a bore so far.
Here’s another theory: SailGP has diluted the impact of the America’s Cup. That damn Sir Russell Coutts, tampering with the natural order of things again!
