    An erratic start to the inaugural Sail GP leg at Abu Dhabi

    An erratic start to the inaugural Sail GP leg at Abu Dhabi


    New Zealand won the first fleet race before finishing dead last in the second.

    They bounced back to place second in the final race behind Spain - who recorded consecutive wins after finishing last in the opener.

    New Zealand driver Peter Burling says the course configuration heaped extra pressure on their starts.
