    Team New Zealand helmsman Nathan Outteridge insists they remained calculated during the close-quarters pre-start manoeuvre that clinched them another win in the America's Cup match

    Team New Zealand helmsman Nathan Outteridge insists they remained calculated during the close-quarters pre-start manoeuvre that clinched them another win in the America's Cup match


    The holders have taken a 3-nil lead after a 52-second victory over Britannia in Barcelona.

    The boats came within metres of a collision in the pre-start duel that earned the Brits a penalty.

    Outteridge says skipper Peter Burling appeared under control.



    The fourth scheduled race was postponed due to fickle breeze.
