The 36th edition begins on the Italian night: it takes 7 victories to win the trophy. Immediately the first two races
Finally it begins: at 4 o’clock in the Italian morning (4 o’clock in the afternoon in Auckland) the first of the two regattas of America’s Cup number 36 airs. With the challenger Luna Rossa who wants to dethrone New Zealand. Exactly as it happened 21 years ago when another Red Moon tried. Patrizio Bertelli, the great boss of the challenge, says that in 20 years this is the round that has the best chance of success even if everyone, absolutely everyone, gives the New Zealand defender as the favorite. First by experience, lineage and above all speed of the boat.
Wind
–
One of the variables to decide the fate of this Cup will undoubtedly be the wind, how much and how it will blow. For today conditions around 12 knots are expected (good for Luna Rossa) and the race course will be the one close to the coast. There are no gatherings to watch the regattas, only spectators at sea and in front of television and computers, for an event that promises to be planetary. Who will win?
