    And this doesn't help either:

    β€œThere’s a very high percentage we won’t get any racing today. The prognosis going forward isn't a whole lot better the next couple of days,” Murray warned as a high pressure system envelopes the country.
    β€œWe will go out and try our hand on Course E. We could get a NNE coming down the channel. It’s just a tricky day, I’m afraid.”
    A return to level 1 also means Murray can use the β€œstadium course” that runs between North Head and Rangitoto Island through, frustratingly, it isn't a good option in very light winds.

                    Nah, TNZ was in a strong position in that pre-start before the postponement.

                    TNZ needs to use their port entry advantage in race 4, and win the start and protect the right side of the course.

                                    I'm a walking goddamn Americas Cup jinx. The Oracle comeback started when I started watching... the very 1st race i watched, we were about to win the whole thing, then ran out of time. Then.... I watched the rest, as we lost race, after race, after race.
                                    And in this one, Wenerei, I missed race 1, went to pub, watched race 2. Today, watched race 1, missed the start of race 2... I'm just hoping this lead is enough to be jinx-proof.

                                        By claiming to be a jinx, is the jinx reversed?
                                        I think I've got red socks on too, but can't be bothered checking.

                                          If we somehow manage to lose this one... definitely.
