The America's Cup race management team and Challenger of Record Luna Rossa say there has been some confusion over a trial rule that will not be adopted for the Prada Cup semifinals. According to Luna Rossa sailor Pierluigi de Felice, the rule was never intended to be used in any other stages. American Magic and Luna Rossa face off in the first semifinal races on Friday. "That was adopted for rounds three and four on a trial basis only ... it has never been in for this [the Prada Cup] or the America's Cup or anything else." • Don't forget to scan QR codes with the NZ COVID Tracer app when on public transport and entering the America's Cup Village.
