    I love hearing the Kiwis accent in nearly every aspect of this sport. A country of 5 million who punch well above their weight. It is an international sport and seems to be at once very competitive and a community, I love that about the sport too. No harm in a little patriotism though lol

    Great tech idea. Presentation would be MUCH better if they used a matrix of arrows (fat is relatively strong, thin is relatively slow) pointing in the direction of the wind at that particular point every 10 meters. That way we could see the WIND GUSTS and the WIND SHIFTS. The current presentation ONLY shows the GUSTS so we have no idea what the WIND SHIFTS are until the boats actually sail into them and change their headings.

      These sailors are that good, they will see most of this in real time by the water surface. If you had to wait 20-30secs for someone to relay it back, you've already missed it, also due to the turning delays in the boat.

    The current America's Cup format is a brilliant example of collaboration and information sharing to improve the technology for all involved. War has always been the driving catalyst to innovation; competitive sport is its less harmful metaphor. Humans are a strange tribe of individuals and team players.

    Could we please change or explain the colour scheme better? So hard to know if it’s a gust or a lull in lighter winds.
    It feels as though static bounds have been set for wind speed. Instead can we just have it based on average breeze?
    I.e in 10km t average a 12 knot gust is green, 15knt is red or something.
    The dark blue is just silly

Watch modern F1, there is so much info available on the broadcast, AC is F1 on the water.
