Se the hand wave from Peter burling when he hooked and sat right next oracle heheh

you probably dont care but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times then you can watch pretty much all of the latest movies on instaflixxer. Been binge watching with my girlfriend these days :)

@Westley Ben Definitely, have been watching on InstaFlixxer for since december myself :)

That start from Team NZ will go down in NZ sporting history, never get tired of watching how Peter Burling outfoxed Jimmy Spithill handsdown.

Smoked em!

And now pretty much covid free in 2021🍻

Does anyone know who shouted that?

@@koffkoff4274 That would be the frustrated Tom Slingsby on Oracle Team USA

It sure is exciting, and an impressive achievement. I do like the more traditional classes though. Take for example, even the super maxis in the Sydney to Hobart Race... as a "low and slow" weekend sailor, I can relate to them and what they're doing, at least to some degree. With these flying missiles, I'm just out of my depth ;)

this guy is celarly a seawolf

He destroyed Spithill in many of the starts.

1:40 Spithill: 'FFS!' I love rewatching this, just for that start.

A win win start for Team New Zealand

Yes, the only reason oracle was able to pull of that comeback in San Fran, was that mechanism they installed to take the human control out of it. Rubbish really

He wasnt waving goodbye he was telling the americans to move away as the kiwis had the right of way. This was cleared up long ago. A statement made by media to create drama. To think that Burling would even do that is sad.

@@michaelrosspearson9756 he still kicked their asses. Jimmy has never recovered. Won't even have a boat in this AC.

If you are joking that was quite funny But if you didn't know that wave was a protest

@Angelous Bacon actually your wrong. This was discussed on NZ tv. Burlings hand gesture was for Spithill to move as he was to close to the NZ cat, the kiwis had the right of way. Its clearly obvious that was what he was doing. To think otherwise is pathetic. The Kiwis are to professional to do a bitchy thing like that.

Nick Hewett. Burling was telling him to move away, NZ had the right of way.

@@michaelrosspearson9756 That's why spitty spat the dummy hehe

1:40

Yes so good! To be honest though I am glad Spithill (with Luna Rossa Prada) is back

@@nzrockdj fuck up you clown

True. It's a very fine line between angle of attack and speed to get the best possible VMG (velocity made good). Still, it's surprising that with the electronics available, that Spithill didn't perform better. However, the Kiwis, after struggling a bit in the leadup rounds to the cup, had really nailed controlling their boat and getting the best out of it.

Suggestion, think you’ll find most of the crew were Australian.. managed & run by a Kiwi boss (Coutts). While the boat design concepts were pretty cool, financing & ownership was out of the US by a company that ironically failed predict its AC future!

Yeah, despite the dates of the races being in the description.

@@franzfanz Some people don't read the description.

Cricket World Cup: England talk up New Zealand for dream final

SO ,WHATS YOUR POINT ? LOSER ?

SO ,WHATS YOUR POINT ? LOSER ?

@Angelous Bacon It was the technology and equipment they put into their boat on the layday's that made the difference.

Apparently not that kool when you blame your boss for his software i.e. start line over-kills, boundary screw-ups & overall shite geo-special racing ability by Spithell and his Aussie crew!

Apparently not good enough.

@Angelous Bacon Remembering that Spithill and team won in 2010 and 2013... not all that shabby really, but outclassed for sure by the Kiwis.

@Angelous Bacon Is that Russell Coutts you're referring to?

@Angelous Bacon OK, well that might explain why they were not as well trained as the Kiwis! 😎

@@nzrockdj some non sportsman like people just find it uninteresting if THEY LOSE

@@davemckenna8591 dj is a fucking knob who thinks he knows everything about the sport.

Yep great news. They can go home soon.

Glen Robison , too slow bro.

Brayden Sullivan One of many Spittal’s many mistakes vs the Kiwis only making a handful (across the finals) 🔦☎️

Most of the equipment on these boats are run on hydraulics, the guys were pedalling or cranking to keep up hydraulic pressure.

Kiwis.. not Aussies

@Pa Tero Australians are excellent sailors. Team New Zealand has one on their boat.

@Pa Tero typical fucking Maori

@@mitchand9 You must be an Australian. YOU Australian's keep trying to steal all our NZ made TAONGA, ( treasures )

It is a special waterproof paint made to last till the end of the race and then dissipate into the water.

Thankyou, they must sell it in the same aisle as chequered paint and left handed screwdrivers.

🤪

I just made the same comment before finding yours

this shout is actually heartbreaking

Primarily about boat design and ultimately speed.

Why don't the announcers mention the wind speed? How much breeze are they sailing in here?

When they bring back the J boats? 🤣

i think there was only 1 American onboard in most races ,They are ALL aussies lol

People absolutely criticized Oracle for being majority-Australian in 2013, Stephen Colbert even joked about it when Spithill was a guest after the victory.

Angelous Bacon what point are you arguing? Whatever way you look at it there was only one American on board and the crew messed up?

No, the USA lost to a better sailing team NZ.

Tom Legrady are we still in 2017?

shinybaldy I left this reply in 2017... wtf are you smoking?

orion khan SailGP

Hate to say it but that thought ran through my mind. Race seven and eight both lost on the approach to the start line.

ocsob007 Hadn't thought of it, yet... No, if you're payed to lose, wouldn't you be less obvious?

ocsob007 yeah right. It had nothing to do with the fact the nzers were better in every aspect....

@@Hallands. prisons are full of dumb people

@@santosl.harper4471 you're entitled to your opinion,. my post is not outside the realm of possibilities.. sports events have been rigged in the past, or do you disagree with that too? race nine today, they again sailed an unnecessary lengthy course and lost again.. why would you go further especially when he didn't need to. every time!

Orion, I believe that lack of 'competition' can be overcome by having two boat teams in the defenders camp to race off against each other and thereby allow a faster progression of small advancements to both tactics and seamanship when handling the vessels they have to race with. At the end of the day, it really boils down to preparation, teamwork at its highest level and making the most of the opportunities on the race course. You see the same principle working on race tracks where teams with two cars will more commonly defeat those teams with one car.

They even changed the rules to allow them to compete in the challenger series so they could size up the competition and get racing time which allowed them to take a 1 point lead into the americas cup. They were still not able to win so Larry Ellison started up his own series, SailGP.

Lol ???

That names not American. What are you talking about

It's all about evolving my boy

James Littlewood nor does the finish...

Having just watched it AGAIN, happy to confirm.
