After days of back and forth between race organisers and the Challengers of Record, Luna Rossa, the America's Cup Challenger Selection Series final resumes this weekend.
Luna Rossa leads the series 4-nil over Team UK and just need three more wins to get through to the America's Cup racing against Team New Zealand.
Extra Time looks at this and whether the temporary halt to racing as a result of Covid-19 could prove to be a godsend for Team UK.
Joining Bridget Tunnicliffe on Extra Time this week are RNZ sports reporters Felicity Reid and Joe Porter and veteran sports broadcaster Bryan Waddle.
The panel also discusses cricket, which comes back into focus next week. Can the White Ferns overcome current one-day world champions England on home soil? And are the Black Caps in a prime position to get a series win over their Australian rivals?
