    Team New Zealand are anticipating a change in tactics from Britannia after three wins to start their America's Cup defence off the coast of Barcelona

    Team New Zealand are anticipating a change in tactics from Britannia after three wins to start their America's Cup defence off the coast of Barcelona


    An aggressive pre-start move by the challengers in the third race saw them penalised and required to drop 75 metres off the line.

    The Auld Mug holders won by 52 seconds.

    Team New Zealand flight controller Blair Tuke says they were ready to react.



    The fourth scheduled race was postponed due to fickle breeze.
