Jimmy Spithill admits Luna Rossa have a lot of work to do before being able to compete with Team New Zealand in the America's Cup match – a daunting task he equates to facing the All Blacks in a Rugby World Cup final. "No doubt going through real racing, I think we've taken a good step forward. "We've really got to utilise this time now between the match to try and bridge that gap. I think we've got a great package at the bottom end for the wind conditions, but we need to improve in the middle and upper end of the ranges." • Don't forget to scan QR codes with the NZ COVID Tracer app when on public transport and entering the America's Cup Village.
