The British America's Cup team suffered another defeat yesterday in Auckland ruling them out of the finals of the America's Cup International Regatta.
Ian Walker's team finished four minutes behind the Swedish boat Victory in the fifth race of the regatta, after fluky winds hindered their progress.
"We said at the beginning of the week that we were looking to sail as a team and that was more important than results," Walker said.
"We have sailed really well, the team work has been good and the starts have been good - we've won every start and managed to put three penalties on teams."
