Italian training derby one day before unveiling

A mere three days before Louis Vuitton Act 13 and a few hours before the unveiling ceremony, a handful of teams trained off Valencia's coast. Some teams chose to train far away from indiscreet eyes while there were a couple of match races, among them, the Italian derby between challengers Luna Rossa and Mascalzone Latino Capitalia Team.

We cannot comment on the race or its result, but let's say it was very interesting. According to what Paul Cayard stated it could well be the Louis Vuitton Cup final but of course it might have been a far fetched statement to please the Italian media. We'll know in a few weeks.
