If ETNZ outmaneuvers ORACLE again today Sat., Sept. 14 in Race 8 and 9, they will be only one race away from winning the 34th America’s Cup Challenge in this first-to-win-9-races series and will take the Cup home to New Zealand.  You can watch the races at 1:15/2:15pm on NBC Sports Network with coverage between 12:30pm and 3pm.
