Cup regatta director would like to only see racing on Saturday and Sunday

Regatta director Iain Murray would like to only see racing on Saturday and Sunday this weekend in the Prada Cup but admits the schedule might not change

19 January 2021

American Magic's absence from round robin three and four means there will only be two competitive races between Luna Rossa and INEOS Team UK.

Murray says there has to be unanimous agreement among the teams for the schedule to change and that hasn't happened yet.
