Ineos Britannia-Red Moon 6-4

The sixth day of racing in the Louis Vuitton Cup finals ended in the sign of Ineos Britannia, which won both challenges, flying 6-4 in the series earning the first match points.

In the ninth race, the two embarkations remain neck and neck for more than half of the race. Halfway through the fifth side, however, the blue consortium made a mistake and the British team ran away, administering the lead to the finish line.

In the tenth race, Luna Rossa got off to a bad start and Ineos Britannia took advantage of this to pull ahead. At that point, Ainslie and co. try to administer, but in the middle part of the race, the Prada Pirelli team makes up a lot of ground. The final part è featured a head-to-head between the two boats and at the last tack è the British team to perform a smoother maneuver and cross the finish line eight seconds ahead.

Ineos Britannia è brought herself one win away from triumphing in the Louis Vuitton Cuo and detaching the pass for the America's Cup against the holders Emirates Team New Zealand.
