Racing was suspeneded after two races on day 1 of the Mubadala New York Sail Grand Prix.
After wins for Giles Scott and Emirates GBR in the first race, and for the Swiss led by Nathan Outteridge in the second, race 3 was abandoned due to a lack of wind and racing wrapped for the day.
Phil Robertson and the Canada team top the leaderboard with a 4 and 2, the Swiss are second with 6 and 1, and New Zealand third with a 5 and 3.
The Brits slot into fourth with a 1 and 7, tied on 14 pts with the Kiwi’s and one ahead of the Australian’s who are fifth with a 3 and 6.
In a change to the advertised time, Sunday’s racing will now take place starting at 18:00 hrs UK time (13:00pm EST).
According to an official SailGP statement, this is ‘to provide the best opportunity to stage the remaining fleet races and winner-takes-all Final’.
