Sunday marks the start of a big week ahead for Emirates Team New Zealand as they face Ineos Britannia in the race to retain the America’s Cup. 

The first team to win seven races will take the Cup, the first two races taking place Sunday morning if weather permits. 

Richard Gladwell, Editor for Sail World NZ, told Ryan Bridge that it’s always the defender's to lose, and Team New Zealand would have to screw something up to lose the Cup. 

He said that they’ve had three months of development on top of Ineos Britannia, and they can certainly do a lot in there.
