In the latest video blog from Bermuda, Oracle Team USA CEO, Russell Coutts is coy about the addition of cyclors to Oracle Team USA's AC50, saying that the Defender is looking at additional grinding capacity.
This involves adding a third grinding position into the AC50 rather than replacement of the existing pedestals.
In his other role as CEO of the America's Cup Events Authority, Russell Coutts updates on progress with the construction of America's Cup facilities in Bermuda.
He also looks at the readiness of the six teams to compete. Over the course of the final practice races, next week, the teams will need to refine their techniques and prepare for the qualifiers in 2 weeks.
