Massive damage to Luna Rossa at the end of the first leg. Just as they rounded the first gates, something (still waiting for details) broke! They have stopped, and team members are investigating onboard.

There was a massive nosedive – and cracking sounds. What was the cracking – we are waiting to hear.

We can see some glass damage on the deck of Luna Rossa. After 17 minutes Luna Rossa retire – INEOS is awarded the win.
