Unfortunately, Sail-World won't be in Vilanova for reasons of cost, but we will be covering it remotely, as we do with many events.

We will have live video coverage on the Sail-World home page, followed by our independent reporting and commentary of the racing, which will start while the racing is running.

Live video coverage starts at 1505hrs CET or 1305 UTC and will run for two hours.

We'll use the same format we use for Cup Spy - with a summarised opening - followed by commentary, weather, race reports and whatever else is available from official and other sources, including independent media at the venue. Catch our story from yesterday www.sail-world.com/news/266617/Cup-Spy-Sept-15-Day-1-The-Rain-in-Spain

It will be updated periodically as new content comes to hand after racing.
