Grant Dalton on Team New Zealand's Preparation for the 37th America's Cup
Спорт
Grant Dalton - boss of Team New Zealand - joins Martin Devlin on It's Only Sport in a very special interview, ahead of the Kiwis' departure for Barcelona ahead of the 37th America's Cup regatta later this year. Team New Zealand will look to win a third successive Auld Mug, which would make them the first non-American outfit to do so in the competition's 173-year history.
Dalton talks to Delvin about their itinerary in Barcelona, the technology behind their boat, whether or not they're ahead of the curve compared to other teams competing, comments Dalton made about the former Labour Government and the media at the Taihoro boat launch recently, and more.

Great show! How much fun to be a part of the Cup Quest. Brains & brawns!
Go ETNZ !! We have 2 Olympic gold medalist on each helm and if she's a even contest in the end our boys tend to make fewer mistakes than the opposition. Plus ETNZ are great at improving right through till the last race . I love sailing and GD has kept the team together for another epic!! I can only dream of what will happen if we defend the cup again. ETNZ, they are doing it!!
Always great insights from GD!
Have a bit of a rest during the transit - there won't be any at the other end...
Guys don't feed the trolls = dont reply to moron haters
Cant wait till October it's going to be really interesting to see how each of the boats compare and compete with each other
Lots of angry lefties in the comments.
Dalton is just in it for the money and what ever else he can get out of it.

Yes, you are right. That's how you run a business
Who cares, how much are you paying yourself this time $3M?

The guys at the top of the food chain in sport are paid well, as they should be. The AC is peanuts compared to what footballers are paid.

From what I heard, Spithill was paid more than that when at Oracle. Emirates would earn that in profits her hour. At least the funds are coming back to the nz economy. The benefit ETNZ has done for NZ is enormous.
Hope the taxpayer is not funding this

The taxpayer never funded ETNZ. There was a bridging loan that was repaid.
