Emirates Team New Zealand to fourth consecutive victory

Emirates Team New Zealand achieved their fourth consecutive victory, out of the seven they needed, in the Louis Vuitton America's Cup putting, even if it was well understood from the start, a serious mortgage on the final result. The British team of Ineos Britannia tried hard, got off to a good start, fought for the first part of the race, but then, inexorably, came the overtaking. Peter Burling and Nathan Outteridge on their 'magic' Tehoro bore the arrow and passed.

Ben Ainslie and Dylan Fletcher have tried again and again but the speed of the New Zealand boat is always better. The Kiwis navigate between the magic of the Maori ceremonies that accompany the boat's exit each morning and the maths: the one that allows Dan Bernasconi, the design coordinator, to always provide the crew with the fastest boat. And it seems that in this edition the difference with the British Challenger is greater than that seen in 2021 against Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli, which had won four victories.

For the English squadron it is 'bad times' as it is inside all the bases of those who have left so far. The only perceptible activity in the bases is that of hospitality for the sponsors' guests, scheduled in some cases until the end of the Cup.

It is back on the field on Wednesday with two rounds scheduled. If the day ends with 6-0, as seems likely, it will resume on Saturday to allow the largest audience to witness the final round.
