Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli Prototype Day 73 Summary

Jimmy Spithill reflects on another perfect Mistral day in Cagliari, "The beauty of today is when you get those flat conditions, you get some pretty good testing numbers - it's pretty static performance. You can really lock the boat in, and just test the numbers. "I think that's a good day for us to go back and look at the numbers - but again, I doubt we'll be racing in those sort of conditions." Section 41. Reconnaissance a) As a campaign cost reduction measure, COR/D has mutually agreed to cooperatively implement a centralised reconnaissance programme for all teams for the reconnaissance of all Competitors’ AC75 Yachts, AC40 Yachts and LEQ12 yachts including both on-land and on-water imagery (the “Joint Recon Programme”). b) Each team is assigned a two-person Recon Unit to follow their every on-water move, but it's not that simple. The cameras are supplied and identical for all Recon Units. Drones are not allowed, and they can't get that close, plus following a boat and keeping a camera steady at 45 knots isn't that easy to begin with. c) A three minute interview follows each on water day, and teams must answer the Recon Unit's questions while trying not to give too much away. It's a raw, unedited view of the never before seen behind-the-scenes development of a team and their boat to win the oldest trophy in international sports. #AC37Recon #AmericasCup #Barcelona2024
