The top two teams that,
at this stage, have both benefited from 18 days without competition,
time they will have used for modifications and in-house training
and testing with their second boats (if they have one), race against
each other again in a best of seven series.
This will be the first time that this pair have raced each other
since the early Round Robins, more than five weeks previously. Again
the new system helps the strongest team or the team that is improving
fastest, by keeping their development out of the limelight until
it is needed. The winner of this series goes straight through to
the Louis Vuitton Cup Finals.
The second pair in the Semi-Finals, also race a best of seven series.
The loser of this side is eliminated and the winner must then go
up against the loser of the Double Chance side Semi-Finalist in
the best of seven Semi-Finals Repechage series.
The winner of this series becomes the second Finalist. |
