1436155 2017-06-25 22:09:00 What I loved about this morning's 2nd race was that Burling utterly outclassed Spitface in the start, and then he went and made that unforced error by going over the line. *happy happy*! :clap

What liked was on the 2nd start, when Burling brought Oracle to basically a stop, then (you had to look close - had to rewind to see it again) Burling looked over at oracle and gave a little wave what looked like to Spithill as if to say -- See ya later- then away they went. :clap

Found a clip, 1st video - the one on TV was different-- You have to look close at 44seconds :D

1436156 2017-06-25 22:29:00 Yes that second race was a great start. I see that "Spitball" has offered to fall on his sword for the next race if the crew want it but somehow I can't see that happening as I don't think Oracle has anyone else with his experience.. paulw (1826)

For once I have to agree Zippity, an awesome result and all credit to ETNZ for looking ahead and going with fresh young NZ talent instead of just buying a team like other teams did

Didn't we buy Glen Ashby? :devil

But all credit where it's due, a magnificent performance from our guys. Not to mention of course, the manufacturers of red socks ...

Now, the next task is for the ABs ... send the Lions packing :)
