BMW Oracle Gains or Losses by Leg: Semi-Final
(Losses) or Gains in seconds
|
The chart above shows BMW
Oracle's losses (to left) or gain (to the right) in seconds, grouped by upwind or downwind
leg, and coded by color for each race. With the exception of the Second
Leeward leg of Race 1, which saw an extreme wind shift, USA-98 has gained on all
downwind legs of the first 3 races, and lost on all but one upwind leg.
Following a mode change and a re-measurement, BMW Oracle's downwind
gains occurred only 50% of the time, and were much smaller. |

The chart above shows BMW Oracle's median gain or loss by leg in seconds, combining the first three Semi-Final races only (in Blue), and combining all six semi-final races (in Red). |
