It has forced several changes and unknowns for next week's sporting calendar, including the America's Cup, scheduled to start on March 6 in Auckland, with no live sport at level 3, while sport can go ahead at level 2 but without crowds. During the Prada Cup earlier this month, a Government exemption was required to race at Level 3. Racing was able to go ahead with crowd restrictions at Level 2.
