    The 2024 edition of SailGP in Lyttelton is off to a slow start

    The 2024 edition of SailGP in Lyttelton is off to a slow start


    In fact, it's not happening at all today now... due to mammals on the course.

    Dolphins grouping around the start line delayed the start of racing for almost two hours - before organisers finally called it off officially - for today.

    It may well end up being a one-day race tomorrow now - we'll have the latest as soon as we find out.
