Well the re-run of the 13th race sucked.
What on earth happened to the Kiwi's?
When Oracle tacked in front of them at bouy two I was shouting at the TV "keep with them, don't tack away" and what did they do, they tacked away and floundered.
It was just a plain stupid action, and then they continually headed for light water, as though they were hunting for the lightest wind.
The Kiwi's tactics sucked so bad it was as though they threw the race.
THERE AGAIN
Was it because the Oracle tactics in the first of the race 13's was spot on?
Luff the Kiwi's as they did at the start, then keep drawing them off the ideal track so that finishing in the time limit would be touch and go.
Then let the Kiwi's bust a gut in trying to get to the finish in time, meanwhile Oracle are just enjoying a light workout getting ready to be fresh for the re-run whilst the Kiwi's were shot at.
Food for thought
