    Peter Burling is clinging to a glimmer of hope New Zealand can win season two of Sail GP

    Peter Burling is clinging to a glimmer of hope New Zealand can win season two of Sail GP


    The penultimate event of the eight round series gets underway on Sydney Harbour this evening.

    New Zealand sit fifth in the standings, nine points behind leaders Australia.

    Burling says they have no room for error in Sydney and the final round in San Francisco.



    The first of today's three races gets underway at 6 o'clock with two more tomorrow before the top three advance to the final race.
