Is anyone else watching this?

Great racing and more changing of the lead than Formula 1.

What channel is that on?

What channel is that on?

Good morning Sp!ke,
Sorry for the delay in answering, unfortunately it is on Sky TV channel Sky Sorts 1 which is channel 401 and if you are fortunate enough to have High Definition, channel 408. On the days there are races (Today) the live coverage starts at 1-30pm, through until 4pm.

I'm not a great believer in luck, so either the Team New Zealand made a number of great decisions, or Alinghi made a couple of whoopsies.

Here's hoping today's racing will be just as entertaining.

Regards
John

They don't burn enough fossil fuel for my liking.
How can you race at 20mph?

9 - 10 knots but look at the huge entourage of super MOTOR yachts that watch the event.

Motor yachts, ahhh, now you're talking

Gloom for the New Zealand boat who were leading until a spinnaker went poof!

3 - 2 to the Swiss but tomorrow is another day.

will today be the final race of the contest or will New Zealand manage to beat the Swiss boat? Hopefully today's sailing will not be cancelled.
