    The New Zealand team's finally in with a real chance of victory in the latest leg of the Sail GP series, this morning in Chicago

    The New Zealand team's finally in with a real chance of victory in the latest leg of the Sail GP series, this morning in Chicago


    Peter Burling and co head into the second and final day in third place, behind Britain and Canada - and right in contention to make the top three podium race.

    Wing trimmer Blair Tuke says the forecast conditions mean the teams will have to use sails that they haven't had to since October.



    The first of the two final round robin races starts at 7am.
