Double Round Robin
[edit]Standings
[edit]The qualification for the Semi-Final of the top four Challengers is based on their race results between each other. The team winning the round robins classification (excluding results with the defender) will be able to choose its opponent in the Semi-Final.
As the Defender, Emirates Team New Zealand will automatically progress to the Final Match after Round Robin 2. In case of a tie in points for the first or last position in the round robins, a tie-breaker race will be held to determine the final ranking.
