Wind is weaker, but subject to shifts and quirky changes in pressure.
Still, we are quite confident in the Australian kid who lived on a island from which any form of boat was required to got to school, work, whatever... It creates a specific mindset. |

Dial-up in perfect control by both teams. TNZ does not manage to foil LR, but gets the right at a price of speed. It feels that TNZ knew which side they wanted, whereas LR wanted to be fully wound up at the start line.
But the first shift goes right - in barely 30 seconds. So LR from a one boat length lead, finds the situation reversed in barely 4 minutes. It could be over already.
Either LR splits and lets Grael run his magic, or they try to induce the Kiwis into some mistake(s)... very improbable scenarios.
First delta: 40 seconds. Wow... 1:38 at the end, shows how TNZ is far superior in lighter winds.
