[QUOTE="Larksea, post: 593880, member: 43875"] well its now 3 races that have been called off 2 for high wind limit and 1 for a time limit. TNZ in a strong position in all three. Can also say that Oracles use of the postponement card has saved them as well at a time where performance and conditions favored NZ heavenly. but with 1-4 races left things are not looking so good for TNZ Oracle seem to have a clear edge overall in terms of boat speed in the most likely band of wind conditions. its 4 races left but the reality is you can almost say its two races left. Because TNZ will have the favored port entry for the start in the next two races. IMO TNZ NEED TO CONVERT one of these. I think if it comes down to the last two races and Oracle have port entry then they will almost be a sure bet to win it. I want to think all TNZ need is a good start, get ahead and a couple of good wind shifts in one race and they can win. But every race it seems to be getting harder and harder. I simply cant watch anymore. Im just going tio mysky it and watch and enjoy it if we win. To lose from the dominant position TNZ were in doesn't bear thinking about. [/QUOTE]
