**Ainslie's Britannia Crew Secures First Points in America's Cup** In a significant turn of events in Barcelona, Ineos Britannia, helmed by Sir Ben Ainslie, has clinched its first points in the 37th America’s Cup after a six-day lull in racing conditions. The British team showcased their skills by winning both races on the day, narrowing the gap to Emirates Team New Zealand, who now lead the series 4-2 in the race to seven victories. This marks a historic moment for Great Britain, as it is the first time the nation has scored points in an America’s Cup race since 1934. Back then, the British yacht Endeavour, led by aviation pioneer Sir Thomas Sopwith, faced off against the US yacht Rainbow, skippered by Harold Vanderbilt, ultimately losing the series 4-2. With the winds finally picking up, Ainslie and his crew are poised for a comeback as they continue their pursuit of the prestigious trophy.
