Videographer and sailing analyst, John Navas, tuned into the Kiwi Media Conference staged at the back of the Media Centre, after the main Media Conference had completed.

Notes these Media Conferences are held before the team has held the full debrief, and questions are literally being answered on the fly.



Below Glenn Ashby answers Ben Ainslie's comment in the main Media Conference about how Oracle Team USA have two Gold Medalists in the back of the boat to handle tactics, which Ray Davies is alone on Emirates Team NZ.
