America's Cup is tied 1-1 after day 1. The team with the better start right off the line won both races.
The Kiwis looked scary-good after race 1 - both because of their zero-errors race and the fact that they've been waiting in the wings the past few weeks. The Italians, however, showed it's all about the start in tying it up. I feel they have the advantage, having raced so many more times in qualifying and reaching the Cup Final.
