Sailing in the America's Cup Challenger Series is on hold during Auckland's Alert Level 3 lockdown. Luna Rossa are leading the best of 13 series 4-nil over Team UK after dominating the opening two days of the regatta. Racing was set to resume on Wednesday but has now been postponed because of the latest Covid-19 outbreak. The America's Cup Village on Auckland's waterfront is also closed to the public.
