As far as I managed to pick from the various sources I read from the "winner only" presser was scheduled well before the beginning of the finals and agreed upon by all teams. Many other LV cup (or sports event) have had this setup. The COR PR contacted ITUK in the morning to make sure they were OK with it, and, of course, they weren't. So the COR changed the schedule accordingly, even admitting they made a judgement error.
All of these communications between the PRs went on in a very friendly way (at least accordingly to what Max Sirena told).
Then Ben threw this kind of a tantrum. 
(BTW in the interview above Sirena told that he, Sirena, arrived at the presser just to step in BA putting his head against the Cattani's head)

Sicuramente, Non ho capito chi aveva steso i programmi a cosa stesse pensando, Non credo sia in malafede nè per offendere nessuno ma è stata una cazzata.
Y'all gonna have us reading Italian before this over aren't you.

I just happen to discover that the quotes taken from a quote frame in another post are awarded to the quoter, not to the OP.
Thank you for friendly putting my attention on it, asshole.

The forum sometimes struggles with nested quotes. Being misquoted that way happened to others as well, me included. It's not deliberate, it's bad software coding. 

 
Not for the first time I regret not speaking Italian. Max is very entertaining and his take on things interesting.
Well if you want learn there are hours and hours of AC discussions on youtube. Multiple channels do pre partita and post partita (before/after race) shows, often going for up to two hours of talking heads discussion the AC,  which stretch both my language skills and my concentration span.  You can't fault the passion here!     

So I don't know what Mozzy is doing with his time, 10 minutes here, 12 minutes there... it's like he's not even trying to compete in the same league as the Italians :)  

But if the measure is information content rather that words spoken, then I think Mozzy wins.... Vittorio d'Albertas has good content, but geeeeeze him and his mates take forever to say it and then say it again and again,  but perhaps I'm lost in translation - story of my life really (except for the Scarlett Johansson part).

There's no doubting the passion which is admirable. And the conversations are like chats you would have in the pub.

OK, it's all nice and fun to throw some shit in the fan, but let's be back to work.
What's going to come out from LR shed?
Does the several months time advantage on the boomless main can make up for all the (supposed) less performance in LR?
How the hell can TR foil on these spaghetti wings they have in light air?

According to Max past interviews, some mods to the foils, new sails, some aero change that will be clearly visible. And asked about the backstays, Vasco Vascotto (before the Prada Cup Finals) said that it isn't over yet, they'll try to find a rule compliant way to hide them for the Match.

Ah, the backstays. What will FB climb if they win? More importantly what will hold the rig up when they capsize. Is LR the only team not to tip over yet?

Mozzy and the Italian Guys have different styles, really like them both, but the most technical of all is Federico Albano I think. His performance analysis are simply spectacular.

The most daunting task for Luna Rossa in the Christmas Race and Prada Cup was sandbagging, with just a little bit more speed than their opponent, only when needed, so to not attract too much attention. Admittedly they miscalculate the speed against Ineos. :D Now preparing the turbo mode for the AC
