Peter Burling's Emirates Team New Zealand has advanced the Swedish Artemis of Nathan Outteridge by 2-1 at the end of the first day of the final Louis Vuitton Cup and that the winner will move on to the 35th American Cup to Oracle, which is being held in Hamilton, Bermuda.

The waterless fall of Outteridge, the pattern of the Artemis, in the third manga, in making a change of band, has led to the withdrawal of the team, giving victory to the New Zealanders. This has been the key to the day.

The winner of the final will be the team that will first reach the five wins. He will face the 'Oracle Team USA', a title defender at the final of the 35th American Cup that will start on Saturday, June 17 in a series that will win the team that will first reach seven wins.

Nathan Outteridge, the captain of "Artemis Racing," woke up on Thursday morning thinking of the unfavorable marker for his team... 1-3 at Louis Vuitton America's Cup Challenge Playoff, in front of him in the remaining semi-finals, could not make a mistake in his regats against Dean Barker, the "SoftBank Team Japan" cane... but on the afternoon of today, Outteridge and his team had won four consecutive regats leaving the score in a 5-3 final, and managed to qualify for the New Zealand Team's powerful Playoff Finals. "Amazing what the Swedes have done!

08 / 06 / 2017: Emirates Team New Zealand is already in the final after crushing Land Rover BAR

Peter Burling's Emirates Team New Zealand is waiting to match the Louis Vuitton Cup final that will start tomorrow in Bermuda waters. In the semifinals, the New Zealand team eliminated Land Rover from Ben Ainslie for 5-2. The other finalist will come out of the embezzlement between the SoftBank Team Japan of Dean Barker and Artemis of Nathan Outteridge and that will be decided today to the best of nine match, the score is 3-4 in favor of the Scandinavian.

Peter Burling's team has had no match in these semi-finals, won by 5-2 and Ben Ainslie's first point of Land Rover BAR was the Kiwi boat's turn. From there they only gave in a match and the English close a very poor participation in this Louis Vuitton Cup.

The other confrontation is being more entertaining between Artemis Racing and SoftBank Team Japan, where both teams have demonstrated alternatives and while Dean Barker's arrived on this second day with a 3-1 in favor, they ended the day with a 3-4 against. Now Nathan Outteridge's play with the advantage of having two opportunities to have a point, while Barker's can't fail again.

I'm in Hamilton at an hour to resume the semifinals, but "more reasonable than yesterday," so if nothing unpredictable happens in a while the battle for the Louis Vuitton Cup is resumed, with the match between New Zealand and Britain... for the moment our antipods have the score to its end by 3-1, the same garrison that offers the tanteator of the other semifinals between Japan and Sweden.

07 / 06 / 2017: Louis Vuitton Cup: 25 knots of wind prevent you from continuing with the semi-finals

It is agreed by the six participating teams: more than 24 knots... to the bases (Photo Ricardo Pinto)

A lot of wind... for these American Cup flying ships, 25 knots are not "turkey mucus" as they say... so the Regatas Committee even though it tried, in the end it had to decline its intention to compete in the Great Sound of Bermuda. The planned semi-finals are postponed and will be held if the wind and sea conditions vary by tomorrow, 8 July, with the following timetable:

Emirates Team New Zealand - Land Rover BAR
Artemis Racing - SoftBank Team Japan
Emirates Team New Zealand - Land Rover BAR
Artemis Racing - SoftBank Team Japan

06 / 06 / 2017: Emirates Team New Zealand is the first to fly in the Louis Vuitton Cup

The second day of the semi-finals of the Louis Vuitton Cup PlayOffs was marked by the breakdowns in all the teams, but it mainly ended with the spectacular turn of the Emirates Team New Zealand by Peter Burling - the favorite to fight the American Cup for Oracle Team USA - during the departure in the fourth semifinals to the Land Rover BAR of Ben Ainslie. The kiwi ship that had dominated the first three match before the British, suffered a wave brush and the 15 meters of catamaran flew three of its six crew members into the water.

Previously Emirates Team New Zealand had imposed itself on Land Rover BAR, thus going 3-1 in favour of New Zealanders. In the other confrontation between SoftBank Team Japan and Artemis also there were numerous breakdowns due to the wind that blew above 20 knots and the speeds at which they sailed reaching 47 points the Japanese ship. In this elimination, Dean Barker's are also dominated by 3-1 to Nathan Outteridge's.

The Louis Vuitton Cup Playoffs of the American Cup were launched in Bermuda with the semi-final clashes in which the Emirates Team New Zealand takes advantage after adding two points to the Land Rover BAR, after Ben Ainslie's were removed in the middle of the first match due to a break in his wing candle. The English team is disappointing in this Louis Vuitton and very much will have to change things without wanting to be in the final, but given what the kiwis see, they have more than control.

In the other semi-final, the SoftBank Team Japan and Artemis points were distributed, each winning a confrontation. The first two teams that add up to five wins will go to the end. The second of the four semifinal days is scheduled to be completed this Tuesday.

Oracle recovered on Saturday day with two wins, which has served him to be imposed on the Louis Vuitton Cup Qualifiers: the first important to the "Emirates Team New Zealand" his biggest rival to date and the second to the powerful British team of the "Land Rover BAR," which succeeded in defeating the "SofBank Team Japan." While the remaining race of the day was for the Swedish "Artemis Racing," on the colist... the French "Groupama Team France."

02 / 06 / 2017: Louis Vuitton Cup Qualifiers: Emirates Team New Zealand is the new leader

Peter Burling's Emirates Team New Zealand has taken away the leadership of the Louis Vuitton Cup Qualifiers in the absence of the celebration of the final day, in which they will face precisely the now second ranked Oracle Team USA by James Spihill, in which it will be the first match of the day. The third position is for the Land Rover BAR of Ben Ainslie who rested on yesterday's day and in which Artemis of Natham Outteridge claimed to win his two clashes precisely before Oracle and SoftBank Team Japan of Dean Barker. The one who has stayed out of the semifinals in the absence of a match is Groupama Team France from Franck Cammas, who today will say goodbye to the competition against Artemis.

01 / 06 / 2017: Louis Vuitton Cup: New Zealand wins to Britain and rules with USA

SoftBank Team Japan imposed on Groupama Team France. lost in Oracle; and is located in the temperate area of the general

Today, four "match" of the second round robins were held without great surprises, as both the United States and New Zealand won two wins and remain outstanding in the general classification. The "kiwis" could with the British "Land Rover BAR," while the Americans were without great problems outdoing SoftBank Team Japan, because the Asians have competed twice on the day of June 1, where the British again competed in the last race by imposing themselves on the Galos, which also completed two sleeves. So is the general:

30 / 05 / 2017: Louis Vuitton: USA and New Zealand do not give in and the British win again

The second Round Robin of the Louis Vuitton Cup Qualifiers started to determine which teams will fight the semifinals starting next Sunday. After the first three clashes Oracle Team USA remains in the head of the classification and in search of this extra point in view of the American Cup dispute and will take the winner of these two laps. James Spithill's boat overtook Groupama Team France yesterday. In the other two Artemis duels was the great defeated, first by Emirates Team New Zealand and then by Land Rover BAR. In this way the Swedes continue with only two points with French and the Softbank Team Japan that he rested yesterday.

It was a day with greater differences than expected. The first duel of the day between Artemis and Team New Zealand had a rematch after the Swedish team was severely penalized in the confrontation that both teams had at the close of the first Round Robin and that gave the victory to the Kiwis when the Scandinavian had everything in favor of taking the point; but the arbitral decision was decisive in a barlovent- sotarento maneuver in the passage of the last buoy. On Tuesday's match, both teams sailed very well until the penultimate stretch in which Nathan Outteridge's were stuck in a fight and could no longer recover.

The two other matchs of the day didn't have much more history. Oracle overcame Groupama and Land Rover from beginning to end. He did the same with Artemis who won the exit, and Ben Ainslie's did not give a choice to Nathan Outteridge, who is complicated and who all points out that they will fight with Team Japan and Team France to get the fourth place that will remain at stake to enter the semifinals.

On Wednesday there will be four match: Team Japan vs Team France, BAR vs TNZ, Team USA vs Team Japan and Team France vs BAR. Artemis won't compete.

The first round Robin of the Louis Vuitton Cup Qualifiers ended with the victory of the Oracle Team USA, which dominates the general with five points - it left with one of an advantage from the America's Cup World Seri- and four wins, the same as the Emirates Team New Zeland that has placed second to a point of the Defender. The Land Rover with only one victory is third thanks to the two extra points obtained as Oracle in the America's Cup World Series.

The last day of the first Round Robin served to bring Groupama Team France and Softbank Team Japan to their second victory, with which after the first three there is a triple tie to two points between French, Japanese and Swedish Artemis.

Tuesday will begin the second and final Round Robin that will define the semifinalists. The first day of the second Round Robin will be: Artemis vs Emirates Team New Zealand, Groupama vs Oracle and Artemis vs Land Rover BAR. You'll rest Softbank Team Japan.

Oracle Team USA by James Spithill has set himself the solo leader of the Louis Vuitton Cup Qualifiers. The Defender already outnumber the second ranked Ben Ainslie's Land Rover. If something was clear on the second day of competition is that the Oracle is not invincible - he lost the confrontation with Artemis - but he won Land Rover BAR and Softbank Japan; that Land Rover BAR is living from the income of the America's Cup World Series after losing the duels with Oracle and Team New Zealand; and that Groupama joined the first point in this America Cup by overcoming Artemis, which all the teams have already pointed out. Today you will rest Oracle and the three matchs of the day will face BAR vs Groupama, Artemis vs Team New Zealand and Groupama vs Softbank.

26 / 05 / 2017: The fort of time delays the setting of the American Cup in Bermuda

Hamilton in Bermuda has not been able to live the inaugural ceremony of the American Cup... winds above 30 knots have made it impossible... and is that in addition to the harsh meteological conditions prevailing the ACC with its 15 meters in length, it is advisable that they only compete with wind speeds between 6 and 24 knots... more could cause serious damage.

The hope of the organization led by ACEA and ACRM (America's Cup Authority and America's Cup Race Management) eagerly await the start of the competition, even though it is feared that the history of the strong winds can be repeated around two in the afternoon, if the wind allows. At 20: 30, the official opening ceremony of this thirty-second edition of the American Cup is scheduled, before the live performance of the "Grammy" Wyclef Jean will take place on the stage of the Village from 5: 4 p.m. (local time).
