The news just gets worse for Dickson and his team. A double penalty at the start, with one of them a red flag penalty to boot, left jaws on the floor for those who watched the former superpower collapse before the race had even got under way.

Can Dickson's team recover form such a desperate position? Not only do they have to win the next five races, they have to round a mark ahead of Luna Rossa. Seems like a tall order. There is simply no doubt that Day 6 is crunch time and not just for Dickson, Desafio Espanol also has one last chance to get back in the game.








SEMI FINAL SCORE SO FAR

Emirates Team New Zealand v Desafio Espanol: 4 - 1

BMW Oracle Racing v Luna Rossa: 1 - 4
