America's Cup, New Zealand takes off
Yet another victory for Team New Zealand in the America's Cup: the holders of the most prestigious sailing trophy also beat Ineos Britannia in the third race of the Barcelona challenge.
It was another race dominated by the New Zealanders, in control from the start and then able to fly up to a 52-second lead over the British, who were never able to impeach them.
The only thrill è occurred at the start, when in pre-start Britannica è almost collided with the opposing crew. New Zealand doesn't let up, gets off to a good start and builds up a lead, thanks in part to the rivals's penalty.
The program on Sunday, October 13 é ended with only one race, because the fourth è was postponed. The first team to reach 7 victories wins the tournament.
