Following the declaration of the America’s Cup Event Ltd (ACE) here today, the INEOS UK team respects the decision communicated by ACE to delay the Prada Cup races due to the current alert level (SW: then Level 3, now Level 2) COVID-19. in Auckland.
The result of the Prada Cup final must be won and decided on the water in the agreed first-to-win 7-race format.
INEOS Team UK fully respects the government’s decision to restrict racing until it is safe to do so and would support a delay in competition if necessary.
The solution presented by ACE is sensible to ensure both the safety of everyone in New Zealand and the integrity of the sports competition.
INEOS Team UK will continue our preparations for the race and will be ready to race when it is safe to do so.
