Second good the news was intensity of wind, that reached the 13 knots in both fields of regatas and was going to provide spectacular confrontations in which they saw génovas broken, spinnakers in the water, luffed to the limit and impossible maneuvers. China Team managed to defeat to BMW ORACLE Racing to secure his first victory from 2005 and sobr and +39 Spanish Desafío prevailed Challenge by 1 second, the smallest difference in which we took of Louis Vuitton Cup.
FLIGHT 1
The exit of regata between Emirates Team New Zealand and Latin Mascalzone - Capitalia Team was realized shortly before the five of afternoon. The Italians arrived to fit one hard defeat and the kiwis with revenge desire after the crossing of NZL 92 and ITA 99 in the Round Robin 1. The exit was for Barker Dean, who did not take in turning to go to by Vascotto Basoue, initiating a war of turned that showed the intentions of both equipment. After 23 maneuvers, the kiwis gained the interior to mount windward with an advantage of 24 seconds. The stern also had New Zealand color, and Emirates Team New Zealand completed second section 20 faster than its rival. To the Italian boat it liked to sail in fitted, and was able to reduce its disadvantage until the 33 according to two in the beginning of the last section. But tangón of ITA 99 did not want to facilitate the task of the crew of Latin Mascalzone, bursting and taking ahead to the prow Paolo Bottari, that fell to the water. To recover to the crew member before happening through the stern and initiating the repair of tangón was question of seconds. Although the solution did not work, the Italians continued pressing the kiwis to sell face his second defeat of the day.
Areva Challenge and +39 Challenge practically left at the moment in that it sounded the signal of the Committee, with both hauled in boats to starboard to initiate I embroider alongside left of the field that the Italians would extend a little more than the French. The first section was really even, with rotation in head, but in the passage by buoy only one it can happen ahead, and in this case it was ITA 85, with 17 seconds of advantage on FRA 93. Areva was able to scratch 3 seconds in the stern, to initiate an intense one second fitted in which Sébastien Cabbage sealed its progression in the last straining itself passage by buoy 7 seconds before Iain Percy. +39 Challenge tried to give back the ball to him to Areva Challenge in the definitive empopada one. ITA 85 pressed to the trasluchada FRA 93 with a dangerous one that supposed to him to fit a penalty and to tear his to spinnaker. Second victory of the day for Areva Challenge.
Team Shosholoza and United Internet Team Germany inaugurated the day in the field of North regatas with a cautious preexit of both boats. The South Africans took control of the right side and forced the Germans to leave towards the left. Already in the first buoy, RSA 83 mounted with 100 meters of advantage. In each section, the boat patroneado by Mark Sadler left until gaining a fundamental victory for Team Shosholoza.
BMW ORACLE Racing made a rotation in almost all their crew and changed its structure of stern completely to confront regata against China Team. Chris Dickson, Gavin Brady, the Erics Doyle and Peter Isler opened the way to Sten Mohr to the cane, Bertrand Pacé in the tactics, Rod Dawson like strategist and Ed Smyth like navigator. In the preexit, the Americans took to the Chinese against the boat of the Committee and they forced to them to leave towards the right side of the field regatas. Nothing else to leave, the USA 98 responded until in three occasions to each turned of the CHN 95, that tried to find wind clean. After obtaining a comfortable distance and commanding to the Chinese to the left, the Americans put rum alongside bo straight of the field and to which it seemed a safe victory. Everything was done for the USA 98, when, as it happened in Louis Vuitton Act 13, Genoa in two occasions was broken to them and saw how China Team expressed its Longtze to move away more than 1,500 meters in search of his first victory from 2005. In the end, CHN 95 entered with 3:15 minutes of advantage on BMW ORACLE Racing. China finished making history. First victory in Louis Vuitton Cup obtained his and it did against the unique representative of the country that more time has shown the title of defender of the America's Cup.
Latin Mascalzone - Capitalia Team and Areva Challenge carried out an exit in which the Italians crossed the line nailing the chronometer and leaving two lengths in the first meters regata. These would be reduced to anything as soon as both boats got involved in a war of turned. Just before arriving at the windward buoy, FRA 93 was placed to starboard and held until putting itself ahead and mounting first, with 99 ITA patch to their stern. In the empopada one we saw one of the most spectacular moments of Louis Vuitton Cup.
The French luffed to look for the error of Mascalzone, that sailed in parallel. The Italians responded to the placed maneuver behind schedule and both spinnakers was n in an impossible position while in their covers the flags rose demanding penalty. In the end, Sébastien Cabbage obtained its intention and penalized to the boat patroneado by Vascotto Basoue. In the fitted one, ITA 99 returned to the attack and, just before the windward buoy, it tried to bring about the penalty of the French with a spectacular and extremely aggressive maneuver, but the judges did not grant it. They would return to the empopada load in the last one, but Areva Challenge was defended luffing until taking the victory.
The Swedish of Victory Challenge managed to lead the first section of his regata against Moon Rossa Challenge until, few turned before arriving at the end of first fitted, ITA 94 was placed in a dominant position. In the empopada one, SWE 96 stayed patch to the Italians, but in the arrival to leeward door the Swedish crew lost spinnaker, restraining the boat. Rossa moon, that left towards the victory that supposed to him to tie with BMW ORACLE Racing to the front of the prvisional classification.
Spanish Desafío 2007 get ready to dispute his first regata of this Round Robin 2 against +39 Challenge. In the preexit, ITA 85 catched to the Spaniards to starboard of the boat of the Committee to initiate first fitted with a a little more length of advantage. Then, ESP 97 invited to them to enter a war of turned which the Italians would leave favored. In the first buoy, +39 Challenge mounted 23 seconds before Spanish Desafío, but still was more than 9 miles of regata ahead. In the empopada one, Iain Percy managed to increase its distance still more, but nothing else to begin second fitted, the Italian boat had problems with its Genoa and facilitated the life of the Spaniards, who were placed ju sto to their stern. Percy and theirs fought with ferocity defending their position. In empopada the both boats they sailed in parallel until the Spaniards managed to iron their rival to hardly take control of the leadership to 250 meters of the arrival. ITA tried it to 85 in a last effort, but crono was stopped with 1 second of advantage for ESP 97. It finished finalizing regata more fit of Louis Vuitton Cup.
