    Am I to understand that NBC will NOT be covering any more of the preliminary racing ?
    If so what are the other options to get a video of the entire racing, including narration??

    Brian, I'm amazed if that's true. I cancelled my cable in 2012 , I think. Been thinking about getting it back just for the Cup and the Trump spectacle but haven't yet.
    I would say check the Americas Cup site -I think they have a youtube channel and replays may be there after a while. There is also a site called "Cup Experience" with Jack Griffin and www.catsailingnews.com . csn has had only short video's with snippets of the action that they got from the AC guys. I'm not sure replays of an entire race are available yet-please let me know if you find them someplace....
