Double duty
Two flights of racing are on the cards again today following the postponement of racing on Thursday. Flights 5 and 6 are scheduled, with a head to head between the top challengers the most important match on the programme.

BMW ORACLE Racing against Luna Rossa Challenge is the second match in Flight 5. Both teams sit equal first on the leaderboard with 27 points. The winner will be alone at the top, at least until the Flight 6 results come through.

Also in Flight 5, Desafío Español has a big match against Emirates Team New Zealand. A win by the Spanish here will greatly enhance their prospects of advancing to the Semi Finals.

In Flight 6, Mascalzone Latino-Capitalia Team and Victory Challenge have ‘must’win’ races against United Internet Team Germany and +39 Challenge respectively. That Swedes and the Latin Rascals are holding on to hope of qualifying beyond Round Robin Two and neither have room to slip-up.
