Team New Zealand claimed an emphatic victory against Luna Rossa in race 6. Team New Zealand claimed the sixth race of the series by a huge 1:41 margin, comfortably leading the race from start to finish on the back of their best start of the series. As commentator Stephen McIvor put it, Team New Zealand "dropped a bomb on Luna Rossa". Despite being left in the wake of Luna Rossa in the first race, they were able to maintain the deficit and, at times, eat into it – if only slightly. But in the first race on Saturday, they were able to gain slightly on the upwind legs despite Luna Rossa being in the position to control and dictate the race.
