America's Cup live stream: how to watch the final race for free in Australia

Kayo Sports is taking you aboard the boats in the America’s Cup as the two teams set sail today (Wednesday, March 9), and you can watch it all completely free.

The America’s Cup is the latest sport to be shown on Kayo Freebies, a new free subscription option from the streamer that has a selection of sports live and on-demand, as well as shows and documentaries, all available at no cost.

The competition will see defenders Team New Zealand go head-to-head against the challengers, Italy’s Luna Rossa, in a best of 13 race series, both vying to lift the Auld Mug on the final day.

Australia’s own Glenn Ashby is the skipper for Team New Zealand, having previously won the race with the Team New Zealand yacht in 2017. If they’re able to take out the America’s Cup again, it’ll be the fourth time the Kiwis have claimed the Cup.

Select games from the Six Nations rugby championships, the A-League and cricket’s Sheffield Shield will also be available at no cost.
