Can Team NZ win the America's Cup again - and are we still bitter about the move to Barcelona?
The Front Page - A podcast by NZ Herald
The first stage of the 37th America’s Cup is about to begin. The world’s longest continuous sporting competition, Team New Zealand will be looking to defend their title in October – their challenger is due to be decided over the coming weeks, as the Louis Vuitton Cup gets underway in Barcelona. But in amongst all the intrigue about which team will come out on top, there’s a lot of background as to why this is all happening on the other side of the world, rather than in our backyard. NZ Herald sports reporter Christopher Reive will be heading to Barcelona for the main event, but joins us now on The Front Page to preview what’s coming up, and a recap of why it’s happening overseas.
