    The table-topping Australian SailGP team is hopeful the strong winds forecast for this weekend's regatta in Lyttelton will materialise


    The Aussies are leading the series with four events to go before the grand final in San Francisco - eight points in front of New Zealand, with Denmark a further six points back.

    Australian driver Tom Slingsby wants plenty of puff...because light winds are their kryptonite.



    Racing starts at 3 o'clock.
